Poem Commentary

The inspiration of this poem is a testimony for all those believers that feel the Holy Ghost moving in their life.

Inside

There is something in me,
It's deep and rich,
You turn on a switch
And boom! Light comes on...
I can't retain it, claim it, name it-
And I won't even try
To explain it to you....
It's more of a when
Then a why and
It's burning on my inside.

On the inside of me,
That's secret and deep,
It helps me lose sleep
But sleep, isn't important
When you feel it, need it, hear it-
It speaks! And I can't tell
How that thang moves or
How it fell on
Me and made me well.

I was hurting too!
I needed someone too!
I was going thru
Like they were going thru...
But that thang on the inside
Told me not to hide-
Tell the truth, It said...
And so, I did and
I tell you that it
Made a world of difference!

____Inside____ What candid yearnings Would you have me confess aloud? Are my tactics too subtle To withstand the scrutiny Of your inquisitive dilemma? Such are the questions I see in your eyes The wisdom no sentence can speak But life is sweeter in silent space Where straight ahead looks And sideward glances can say more Than any electron microscope Was built to expose Look at me And forget the tainted speculations Of curiosity For they will never tell us About what is really going on Inside John Christopher

oh I get what you mean I didnt see the other poem. Nice one, very in-depth

To have great poets there must be great audiences too.

Walt Whitman, American Poet (1819-1892)
