Inner Thoughts

Lets just sit
I don't want to talk for a while
I just want to be
I don't want to exist
In a beautiful world
Created by your protective deception.
I want to hear my heart beating in the silence.
That heart and the breath
That you take from me
Every time you go away
And leave me to pick up the pieces of my life
Dust myself down
Polish my pride
And forgive you again
I don't doubt you love me
But sometimes its truth that we long for,
An inner glimpse of the soul
You're too afraid to reveal
Show me and I'll rest it in my palms.
Long enough for you to feel....
Your own heart beating.
