You forget you shouldn't feel
As your eyes brim with tears
And the softness whispers
Suddenly in your ear.
Someone so near
Touches your soul
And makes you feel fear
You just want be alone,
But they catch your eye
And you stand transfixed.
Longing to touch
Aching in your chest.
As you sink to your knees
Your cheeks flushing pink.
Your hand in my hand
Right on the brink.
That moment in time
When you finally give in
Then quick like the wind
You're off again.
Free from the feelings
And touches of care.
Here come the blinders
Your comfortable flair.
Back too where you were
Back
to
despair.
Why should they care?
