Take A Chance On Me Poem by JL Byoll

Underneath my skin,
deep inside, within.
So dark, hidden and unseen.
Unreachable, even by the sun.

If you dare reach out, I'll willingly take your hand.
I'll be your guide through this unusual land.
Over my steeply sloped ambitions,
through my rough and vast dream,
across my bitter and salty personality
finally reaching the shores of my soul.

And so if you endure the journey
of knowing all of me.
Then you'll see, through the gates of my sincerity,
behind the locked doors of my heart.
My love kneeling before you, awaiting your company.
