It's not that I'm dreaming
(I am)
It's not that I'm wishing
(I can)
It's not that I miss you
(as such)
It's not that I need you
(too Much)
It's not that I want you
(I do)
It's not that I love you
(I could)
I want to
share a kiss,
stay like this,
feel like this,
pray like this,
touch like this,
ache like this,
please like this,
take like this,
breathe like this,
give like this,
need like this,
live like this.
I want to lose
myself in you,
sink into your skin,
draw you in,
clutch at your breast,
pass your test,
but do you frighten me?
Nay.
I'm scared to death
that you'll be my downfall,
my final breath,
so don't let me discover
your beauty within,
just stop me, just end it,
before love can begin.
