The Love Inside of Me

I long
to see you
smile, feel
your lips, hold
you close

If you
peer inside
my heart, you’ll
see it’s you I
love the most

I can
hardly keep
inside, my love
for you I cannot
hide

I find
it hard to
stay away from
you from day 
to day

I pray
the time will
come when
you will know
and you will see

That none
can match the
love I have for
you inside of 
me

Thanks my man! Yeah this is a newer one, I believe 2012, but the format was taken from a much older one I wrote back in the mid 90s. Thanks again! MC
