Please touch me since I can't touch you.
Pick me up I'm feeling blue.
Lay me down with gentle hands.
Touch the fever in my glands.
Our eyes meet, they touch, caress
I feel my heart skip a beat
But for thoughts of inadequacy
Exposed will my soul feel my love?
Kiss me with your loving lips,
Nestle in my neck,
Explore my body's mounds and dips
But keep yourself in check.
Let me snuggle in your arms.
Let me sleep there, tight.
Quell my blues and mounting qualms.
Tread lightly over my fright.
Make me feel I'm wanted.
Am I good to kiss?
Do I seem intelligent?
Can you feel my bliss?
When I'm in a room with you,
When I know you're near,
You make my soul thrill
Through and through -
I hold your presence dear.
Make me feel I'm wonderful.
Help me find some peace.
Help me lose the quaking feelings.
Make the aching cease.
Help me find my right to life.
Help me stand alone.
Show me how to withstand strife
When you are far from home.
Love me, momentarily.
I know you can't do more.
You must be forever free
In case I start to bore
What a worrywort am I!
What a vast imagination
Visualizing things that aren't
Longing for the things you can't
Give to me, honorably.
Can't I see that all this would be worthless
and void of all respect?
Relief should flood my being
when I realize I've been checked,
Till now, the urge to attract you to our doom
But the urge just grows when you enter the room.
A touch of eyes and minds, to me,
no longer seems enough.
One day you'll come to realize
our friendship was a bluff
To hide a stronger feeling,
a burgeoning attraction,
That fills my head with thoughts of you
and Woos me to distraction.
How long can I hold off the thought
of making you see me
As the tantalizing man
you knew me once to be?
How long can I live
with the stories in my mind,
Before I try to make them real
and stumble, like the blind?
So far, we have remained friends
we've kept a wall in between,
But how much that wall defends
Still can't be foreseen
And yet, I cannot live
without the knowledge that is you,
And even if you go away
I still will manage to
I will live my life without you
if I know that year by year
I can still hope that you’ll appear.
Therefore, I cannot make a break,
even knowing that I should.
I dare not lose the life you give me,
even if I could.
