Wishing

I want to know you.. really know you. Inside and out.
I want to feel your arms around me. Not rushed, not afraid.
I want to taste your breath and know how your skin feels against mine.

Just once.

Fall in love, runaway, dive in so deep and never come back up for air.

If only..

I am held back. Afraid of hurting you, hurting myself. Hurting the people we love. Afraid of letting you see all of me. There is so much you don't know, that I don't think you would understand.

I almost wish this never started, that way we would never have an idea of what we are missing.

The thing is there is no way. No place, no time. It's not right. So many things going against us. So many people at risk of getting hurt.

I'm so happy to know what I do. Your laugh, smile, kiss, smell, eyes, touch, voice. Things, moments, feelings I will treasure.

I believe I've been where you WISH you were and I urge you to stay strong and stay where you belong.

if I had a dime for every time I felt that.. I would buy you coffee and cake and say congrats on a poem well worded :)


Much Love
