Poem
Oh that’s you and me “You and me were always with each other, before we knew the other was ever there” Destiny carves its path through lives, filling needs unknown until it happens Bridging gaps of empty terrain where love belongs eventually as our hearts wait for that one we feel on the journey “You and me we belong together, just like a breath needs the air” So many comparisons play, moving pieces to spaces, uncovered Sliding down chutes, climbing ladders, sensing that something waits, something good Inspired to keep going, following the lines drawn in tingles on skin “I told you if you called I would come runnin’, across the highs the lows and the in betweens” You’ve taken my hand and showed me things are not always as they seem Until you find them in your shadow, lifting you when you fall, caressing your soul in unexplained notions, safety and comfort with merely a touch “You and me we’ve got two minds that think as one and our hearts march to the same beat” Your eyes, my eyes, we see similar patterns curving about skylines of melodic tempos As we walk together, one step after the other, but two steps always for the other in whatever direction they choose, syncopated movements hand in hand ”They say everything it happens for a reason, you can be flawed enough but perfect for a person” These scars of past seasons, cold winds blow across arid deserts of details and misgivings Cloaked in love’s blanket, accepted beyond yesterdays Put away in box with a lock, no key is available and neither would want it anyway ”Someone who will be there for you when you fall apart, guiding your direction when you’re riding through the dark” This light that leads, from your smile, your understanding, your acceptance that I reflect back as a mirror Enhancing the beam of this forever feeling, Strolling down avenues of pleasure for happiness is always a two way street ”Oh that’s you and me…” 4/4/17 The italicized lines are lyrics from one of my favorite songs, “You and Me” by Pink and Dallas Green off the Rose Ave album. https://youtu.be/TUYleIXgceQ For the “Your Favorite Song” poetry contest Sponsored by: Alexis Y.
