It Will Always Be You Poem by RIC BASTASA

Wherever I am or in whatever
Situation I find myself
Be it in prayer or
Play or serious consideration
Of me & her,
It will always be you in my mind,
My soul,
It will always be you, in all my sins
Today, tomorrow,
It will always be you, how can I ever
Learn to be
True to myself,
as it will always be you
In my brain
Damaged till the end, it will always be you, how

Can I ever imagine myself always loving you,
Always imagining you
While I make love to her, while I move around my world

I become so ugly in you and we become
So ugly like wrinkles and scars
But it will always be you,
& me, I swear, I inser always you & me in there,
And no one else,
It will always be you,
How can I be so unforgiving?

How can I be so dishonest?
Always in sin, always in the ecstasy in the wrong workings
Of my mind,
It will always be you just the same,

The world will never know, because it
Cannot understand, I can feel it.
It has only the cruelty for it,
Like savage to a slave.

Reverse me, tumble me, and hate me,
It will always be you. You will always never know.
