Lets Talk About You

Let’s talk about the “Who” you want, 
Behind the words you speak,
The real person deep inside, 
The really truly unique,

Your desire for solace, comfort and love, 
The things you desire most,
Or your emotional wants you feel deep down, 
To have your ego stroked,

Hmmm, yes, you yearn to know more, 
More about what you want,
To live the love from deep within, 
To live the love within your heart,

It sounds like the “Who” you are, 
The “You” living up in your head,
Is the unique person wrapped in a rose, 
The one blue in a field of red.

I try to always talk to people about the "you" they want but unfortunately, some have no idea who that "you" is. This is a fantastic poem, Lewis.
