Skin

The heat rises off the black pavement
The smell of tar and dust and exhaust
Certain that the heart beats invisible
Beneath your skin
hear it like a drum- the pulsating hum
Of life here
How that is today
Space that captures the soul
Waiting for
Something more
Listening
The breeze flows through
curtains softly dancing
Inside the way of love
The path is often narrow
Songs of happiness unveiled
Things that seemed important
Sprawled out of the purse
That carries tokens and coupons
Lipstick and gum
Know that all these words get under our skin
That somehow makes colors brighter
Laughter louder
Than usual
The smell of tar and dust and exhaust
Certain that the heart beats invisible
Beneath your skin
hear it like a drum- the pulsating hum
Of life here
How that is today
Space that captures the soul
Waiting for
Something more
Listening
The breeze flows through
curtains softly dancing
Inside the way of love
The path is often narrow
Songs of happiness unveiled
Things that seemed important
Sprawled out of the purse
That carries tokens and coupons
Lipstick and gum
Know that all these words get under our skin
That somehow makes colors brighter
Laughter louder
Than usual
