Standing On The Outside



I'm standing on the outside
looking in
and what I find is
the story of a man broken

I see the tears beading
upon his heart
I stand watching the pieces
drift apart

I'm standing on the outside
looking in
and what more I see is
the spirit of a marvel being

I see him broke like a
glass of wine
a million pieces shattered
throughout time

I want to reach out to take him in
as a part of me
I want to breath into him life
for a world to see

I'm standing on the outside
looking in
So take me in but
slowly trusting my hand

I'll bid away your sorrows
and gift you the sun
I'll lift you up holding
you until time comes undone

I see you inside out
like you see me through to end
Coz' your standing on the outside, too
looking in

wow this touched me deep.... Reminds me of me as Jesus has healed me from a lot of pain... He is still working on a couple of things that linger but my insides are cleaned up and for the outside I'll always be just a imperfect human anyway....... red oh by the way nice write......

Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
