Love Poem: Inside

Inside

The façade of a deeply thought out
reply
and crafted remembrance,
seems to have invited a
shuddersome crush inside of me
Only indulges the edges of
my wayward memories,
best left behind
The rest stays inside
where swirls of rested reviews
restart my innocence anew,
and calls your name
…as if I’ve never known

A gamely consideration…
cast this side of love
measures and invites
my neglected best
to create a new pattern of trust…
that I simply cannot fathom

For us to see inside
and drive a lasting vow
requires of me to tie a new bow
inside out
Restate your questions
before they’re known
Reply to ponderances that
you may ask
And look inside
before I lose myself to answers
that you wouldn’t pose
 
Shine the beads that lose their
spark inside your shadow
And soundly stack the shiny
beads
Till they only beam inside
of me
