Coordinating Luggage

Tell me you're empty all you want That all that's inside you is a darkened void I won't believe a word you say Because I've seen you laying in the dark Half asleep as you whispered in my ear And I've seen you in the half light of early morning Filled with the lightness of sleep You can't be empty because you're overflowing With the thoughts you can't find the words to voice And with kindness and wit And day dreams and patience and love You always tell me how you love balance And your favorite colors are black and white You think you feel too little Well I feel way too much We can find away to work things out If you let me be the yin to your yang You're the first to say that everyone has their damage I'm broken, you're empty And to borrow your words, there's poetry in that Because if you look close enough I think you'll start to find Your broken, jagged pieces fit perfectly in mine.
