Stoic Steel Within My Mind

Stoic Steel Within My Mind

Within my mind it yearns, within my mind it burns,
These thoughts of a man whom I wish to hold and touch,
Within my dreams he weeps, within my dreams I sigh,
These things I cannot understand a reason why,
In reality I see a side of him, a mask he keeps on tight,
Within my dreams I see deep beyond to the pain inside,
Does he hold such pain inside, waiting for some support?
Or is it only in my mind I imagine these things within him?
I yearn to understand him completely, feeling lost, unsure,
Do I merely imagine these things I see or is it a sign of something more?
How can I possibly see the truth behind those steely eyes?
Will he let me see inside to the secrets there that he hides?
I wonder if it is all in my mind, or if it means something deeper,
I yearn to grow closer, to find out why, these images in my mind,
They haunt me day and night as I ask myself the reason why,
I see him in ways no other has in the dreams within my mind,
Is there a reason, will I be denied a chance to find out why?
In my mind I question why, seeing things that may not within lie,
Am I wrong or am I right? How can I see him deeper inside?
These things they will continue to gnaw, begging my attentions,
I want to wrap my arms around him, a comforting embrace,
Allow him to release the things he holds that no others see inside,
Is this what he seeks? Is this what I can provide?
How can I know the truth if I am not allowed closer to his side?
Mentally I call each day, hoping for a chance to find out more,
There is something deeper, I imagine it or feel it, whatever,
My heart it yearns for him, breaks for him, sees through him,
It passes through the stoic steel of his gaze to the person inside,
I feel as though he calls out for an understanding soul,
One who will not judge him, letting all barriers fall,
Or this may just be imagined, where nothing is as it seems,
I want to be there if I am right, I want to know the truth,
His eyes so sad and full of tears, asking for something deeper,
Will my dreams be haunted further by these images I share?
Only time will truly tell, but if he is calling I am here,
He has nothing to fear. Within my embrace, he is safe
With this thought I look for tomorrow, a new day.
