Sometimes you seem so close,
but then I realize it's just my eyes
catching yours
(worlds away--maybe in a dream)
in hopes that they can run away together
and spend an eternity in the obvious.
I hope you'll someday understand
what your presence can bring
into a life filled only with words--
especially those that can never
quite seem to leave my lips.
Your hands are forever holding my soul,
while my heart sneaks in and around your fingers...
I would never want to be anywhere else.
