Just You

What is this that I am feeling

Why are my walls shaking

And breaking

And what is this that I feel I am needing?

Is it you?

Is it me?

I look you in the eyes

And there’s something there that I can’t deny

A spark

A connection

An understanding of each other

With just a simple glance

My walls break down

They shatter

For once I actually feel sound

While listening to the sounds of your laughter

Your touch makes me want to share everything

Hide nothing

Your embrace makes me feel safe and warm

During a terrible storm

I want to tell you

See if there’s more to explore, something more we could share

But…

Do you even feel the same?

Do you feel the same?

The same oneness as I do?

The same spark?

Or do you just see a good friend?

Nothing more?

It’s there, I can’t deny

I can no longer run and hide

But if I say something, will I cause unnecessary strife?

And make the biggest mistake of my life?
