Where Do These Feelings Come From?
Charlee Love ❤️
Where do these feelings come from?
The soft warm feelings he makes your body feel without even a touch.
Where do these feelings come from?
The feeling of sun kissed skin on a hot summer day.
Where do these feelings come from?
When the happy days turn to sad days and you cant figure out why.
Where do these feelings come from?
When your rain to starts to flood the world around you.
Where do these feelings come from?
When your breathing becomes shorter and your cries become silent.
Where do these feelings come from?
When you want to be normal but feeling normal means living outside your box.
Where do these Feelings come from?
Where we all come together to lend a shoulder to lean on and everyone now can smile again.
