Convoluted

Twisted up around
inside and outside
up and down
falling into it

So much to come into play
words, feelings, thoughts
actions
held accountable

What I said
Then
What I mean
Now

Stop and listen
hear it come in
quietly knocking
at your door

Did you feel it too
When you were in my arms
just then, for that instant
it felt okay to be where we were

I know you felt it
Two arms took it in
Tears burning behind
your closed eyes

This is the tough part
To show what we are made of
This is it
We can make it


{It felt good to hear you acknowledge me - to know that through all of this you still understand what we mean for each other - you are such a good person - i never lost sight of that}
