Him Within Me Poem by Paolo Mikel Moro

He glanced through eternity to see what he must
He brought nothing, no sword, no shield but trust
And found a place shrouded with fear and black
He doesn't know if he needs to turn back

So he closed his eyes trying to make everything soft
hoping there was a chance for his spirit go aloft
But the pain of truth stays constantly on him
everything was then cursed and turned so dim

I tried to hold his hands by that time
but I ended up holding mine
I tried to put happiness on his eyes
But I ended up meeting my own surprise

I was looking at him that day and he looks so sad
I was feeling his heart that beats so bad
then there, a reflection that I must see
and DAMN! the storyline was all about me!
