Your hand cuffing the side of my face
I look up and get lost in the warmth of your eyes
To feel your gaze all the way into the deepest depths of my soul
Somehow thrills and calms me all at the same time
When you look at me
All of my thoughts go silent
Shivers run down my spine
Everything else disappears and the only thing that exists in the moment is us
Your touch leaves a lingering warmth that I've never felt before
I wouldn't ever be brave enough to say it to you
But my heart falls a bit when I can't feel you
When you're there, close enough for me to touch
I feel that I cannot touch you without your permission
Scared that you will fear what others will think
The moment you do
My heart fills with joy
The warmth is there again
I long for those moments
Your touch, your gaze
My hearts eternal bliss
