Expanding Man

Looking inside us
I am the constant
you are a variable
time is control

When you leave
your sent is with me
At times I find comfort
on your pillow

In your smile
the warmthof a thousand days
kindling

With your touch
strength is Melted
and Solidified
I am invincible

Looking inside us
as you bloom
I surely am
the Expanding Man

Very lovely. I liked this one a lot, especially the way this one sounds when read aloud.
Nicely done.

Thanks VP , Margo , Sparks ... I always read them aloud ... one of my quirks Margo , Thanks for reminding me of that song. That was one of my favorite albums when I was young. Expanding Man is also the name of a band. They are on the sound track for "The Cable Guy" with Jim Carry. The song is called Download.

Some of God's best work in us happens as we are stretched and in this case expanded by the love and lives of those we hold dearest to our hearts.
