Maybe this is a tale - maybe this is reality. It's been so long but when you look at me, I remember. Your eyes draw me in, as you tease me.
Not to be known, not to be shared but maybe they do know.
I'm giving them enough to make them wonder. And I know when we gaze at each other for a little too long, we should look away but isn't that part of the game?
Take a look at my body, look at my hands
The sun is shining upon me, in this wide open field. People are laughing, teasing, having fun. Do they know that life's too short? Or are they just playing along?
I let myself fall to the ground, the grass tickling my bare legs and arms. And as I lay on my back I look up to the clear blue sky. And I feel broken, yet needed and wanted. But aren't we all?
There's so much here, I don't understand
I've been treated so wrong, I've been treated so long
As if I'm becoming untouchable
The sun is slightly burning me but I don't care. A bird soars the blue sky and I smile and it fools me. I hear footsteps nearing me and I know. I just know, it's you. Opening my eyes, I gaze back at your teasing yet questioning gaze. You run your hand through your hair; like a little tomboy and I love it.
Gracefull like a cat, you lay yourself down next to me with a smile that brightens my world.
O, I need the darkness
The sweetness
The sadness
The weakness
I need this
I turn my head away from the sun only to see it reflected in yours. You give a shy smile and I grin back. I reach out and softly tickle your neck, your chest and your laugh fills me up.
I need to feel your hand upon my face
I think I might have inhaled you
I can feel you behind my eyes
You gotten into my bloodstream
I can feel you floating in me
Not caring about the people around us we give into 'need' and not into 'want'.
You start tickling the backside of my knees, even though we don't really know each other that long but you remembered how much I love it. And suddenly the world stopped turning.
There was only you and me. Brown eyes reflecting. And you bent down and kissed me - your lips oh so softly and I know you felt me smile against yours.
I think I might have inhaled you.
Life's too short.
