Hands & Feet

If you hold my hand
I'll show you the path
My path
If you let me lead
I will always follow
Take a trip down my lane
to know what I've known
Discover what I have not
New eyes
Careful perspective
Put your hand in mine
I'll hold it tenderly
Feel the pulse that determines
My path
Your path
Seemingly different
Knowingly the same
For you are me

and I am you

He is she
Up is down
Love is life
I am alive
You are alive
We are in love.

What keeps my feet moving?
My heart beating...
My soul living?
It seems as though
I can never get up
without tasting dirt in my mouth
My knees bloody
My palms sweating
My mind wandering, wondering
when it will find the one
The one that will stay
I promise I'll never leave.
