Heating up my pores
Soaking in and staying for a while
You're allowed to stay for as long as you'd like
Inside my veins
Finding my heart
Right where you belong
Welcome home
And when the shadows crawl on top of me
Following with me in step
Guarding any nearby harm
I know that you aren't too far away either
I walk to nowhere
This great world out there
Is too great for me to see
And you follow me from place to place
That nowhere is my somewhere
To belong with you
I breathe you in
But do you ever come back out?
Do you hibernate inside these lungs
To keep me alive through winter?
Warming up the dying breed of leaves
Before they finally give up
And fall victim to autumn
You are the breath on my neck
The soft touch on my eyelids
Letting me know
There is still
Beauty in this world

"for as long as you like"- more specific
"welcome home"- yayness
"I walk to nowhere
This great world out there
Is too great for me to see
And you follow me from place to place
That nowhere is my somewhere
To belong with you"- This stanza is a bit confusing. I know this is gonna sound screwy but describe nowhere. Like descibe emptiness. and the second and third line seem uncomfortable.
love 4th stanza. Dont touch a thing.
"beauty in this world"- like the idea but different word choice.
Title ideas- (never too far)(the hidden insides) (Everyone has a nowhere)
I promise to get around to posting my thoughts on this poem and title suggestions. I read it, and I have a lot to say.. so I'm leaving it for when I have more time. I do not want to speed comment, because then it will not be a comment of the best quality.
