A Night in my Mind

Show up on my doorstep out of the blue. Talk about that truck, it makes your eyes light up so. Reach out for my hand without realizing it and continue joking about the little things. Realize we're holding hands and let go; you didn't mean for me to mean this much to you. It feels empty without you, but I know you'll be back soon.

Put your hands on my waist; I can feel your heat through my shirt. Pull me in close, just a hair away. All I smell is coconut and all I see is the happiness in your eyes. I could get lost in their depths, they see through my soul.

Pretend to bite my neck, it's my favorite game. I'll say no and try to turn away. You're stronger than me and keep me in place. You pull back a bit and smile; it warms up your face. But now you're too close; I can't hold back anymore. 

You're not much taller than me, but to my tippy toes I go. My eyes on your lips, I giggle a little bit. I go in for a light kiss. Perfection. Still on my toes, still too close. I look up through my eyelashes, your eyes are closed. A smile on your lips. 

I stay there for a second, not daring to breathe. My heart pitter patters; is this what love is? I go in for another kiss, I can't resist. Better get my fill, soon you'll be gone. Don't think of that now.

You deepen the kiss. I wrap my arms around your neck. No longer a hair away, I feel free. Amazing it seems, that this is all meant for me.

You're not really here. These visions play out all in my mind. Why can't this be easier? Do I really have to lose you? 

I'm wearing your shirt tonight. The plaid one I'm sure you have a dozen of. You don't know it's here. I'll never tell you. 

I knew I loved you long before he said anything. You felt like home so early on, how could I not? But how to admit it; how to tell you? Should I tell you? 

Questions with no answers. A riddle with no key. 

I guess we'll just have to see.
