Touch me in
And not out
Then my glow will show
In the glass of love
Touch inside out
And not outside in
For thieves break in to steal in the dark
Making light their enemy
In the stealing territory
II
I need a carer
And not a thief
I need to glow
Not to be made low
I need to flow
Like a blockless river
Not to be stagnant like gutter water
So light from in
And not from out
