How much of me
Would it take,
I wonder, at times,
To be around you?
Then I step back.
Slip out of my skin.
To look at me.
To look for you.
I’m there.
Minus me, of course.
Are you there?
That… faint shadow?
Your shadow – just there
Whetting my hopes
That today, just for this day
You will be more than that.
And then, when you call me out,
Ask, that I stay, be around,
I will, I will, spend my soul,
Just to be around you.

How much of you does it take
To think, and then, magic make
Words with such feeling
Set me reeling
And will, for hours, keep me awake!0
