Passion

If you could see how other people see you now
Open your heart and soul you know what to do
Look to the sky, grab some rays from the sun 
Use that newfound energy to have some fun
Your smile radiates in a powerful way
You think you are not worthy of love every day
The true you is trapped deep inside
Take a chance and come out for a ride
Your dreams are a real reflection of you
Listen to them, they will show you what to do
Toss aside the torments of the past
Capture the new you and make it last 
I can feel the burning passion in your voice 
Let it out to be shared you have a choice
I need your body close to mine 
Baby, you send shivers down my spine

You nailed this one John. flow and pace hard to fault. Can feel the passion in every line. could not find a line out of place. Opening line all too true. Heeded it helps one soar, seen through uncomprehending eyes, sad. This one for my top twenty. Maybe top 10. Thanks for sharing David
