Gazing To The Other Side

You call me when you need me,

seems you know when I get lonely.

Your touch, still ignites me like, electricity.

*

You capture and control me,

overwhelm the heart within me.

Time and time again you always find your way back in.

*

One day I’ll be strong enough,

able to resist your grasp.

But till then, when you come calling

I will give you what you ask.

*

You use your kisses as a weapon,

hold me hostage with a smile.

I surrender to the passion, even for a little while.

*

Then you’ll go back where you came from,

leave me like so many times before.

I won’t feel better till I change the lock on my heart’s door.

*

One day, I’ll be strong enough,

able to resist your grasp.

But till then, when you come calling,

I will give you what you ask.
