you think you know me
you don’t know me
I barely know myself
the melody inside my soul
opens up the doors
wish I knew where I was going
do you have time for another story
if you listen I will look for words
please just tell me what it means
I will look to leave a piece of me
that rests inside for just a while
it may carry us until the dawn
if I am giving you
everything I do not have
one of us may find the way home
turn away before you fall apart
I will close my eyes
and wait for all the tears to dry

I enjoyed reading this. I especially like this stanza .”I will look to leave a piece of me
that rests inside for just a while
it may carry us until the dawn”
