I Can Hear You...

I can Hear you Calling me.
Asking for my Attention.
I can See you Looking at me.
Asking for my Affection.

All it takes is your Voice.
For me to want to Hear more.
All it takes is your Look.
For me to want to Feel more.

As I turn to face you at your Call.
I feel myself Drawn further within.
As I raise my gaze to look to your Eyes.
I feel myself Falling further down.

I can Hear you Calling me.
Asking for my Attention.
I can See you Looking at me.
Asking for my Affection.

Though tears might Fall.
I never hit Bottom.
Though my heart nearly Breaks.
I never feel the Crash.

You Voice gets my Attention.
The Bottom seems far away.
Your Look gets my Affection.
The Crash is never felt.

I can Hear you Calling me.
You have my Attention.
I can see you Looking at me.
You have my Affection.
