When souls touch
'Tis so surreal
It's hard to put in words
How you feel
'Tis a warmth
Consuming tone
That bores deep down to the bones
It makes a place
Takes comfort there
Like it's the place it needs to share
'Tis with one whose soul does touch
It's such a need
Not just wanted, so much
The need to feel
To be all in
'Tis beautiful electricity
Invites us in
The spark, the flame
Which love ignites
Turns every bad, wrong, or sad moment
Just right.
'Tis makes the troubles you feel
Disappear for a space in time
'Tis soul-touching moments, I claim you as mine
Take me, all
My soul and my heart
I'm a puddle for your love
I have been from the start.
When we part from our time together
I feel the ache of you missing
But I know it's not forever.
Soon in time we will be again
It can never be soon enough
Because my soul longs for
You, I'm ready to dive right in.

What's wrong?
Nothing.
Why do you ask?
Because you're looking at me.
You see, when I say "nothing,"
It's actually a lie,
Because it's really something—
It's you, my special guy.  
You hold me when you're able,
You calm me when I'm sad.
You tell me that you love me,
You make me feel glad.  
What's wrong is that I could
Stare at you for days.
You could ask me over and over,
Yet my answer will never change.  
It's always you; you're my "nothing"
That, when someone asks me about,
What it is I'm thinking, it's you it's all about.  
So nothing isn't bad; it's actually pretty great.
To have a man like you in my life,
I'll take nothing all my days.

When we hug,
Our bodies touch,
Holding so tight,
Squeezing against you
With all of my might.  
When we hug,
All chaos flees,
Making it feel
Like we're the only ones we see.  
When we hug,
I want to be closer still.
I want to climb under;
I need to feel all the feels.  
When we hug,
All the sounds quiet.
The only sound
We hear is the sound
Of peace; there's never sounds of riot.  When we hug,
When we are holding on so tight,
I know this space was meant for me.
We fit together just so right.

I love you like the moon loves the midnight sky,
Always constant, quiet, and with a glow that lights up the darkness so high.
It’s a love I feel that will never fade, always shining through,
No matter how wild the night gets, it always brings me back to you.
And since you can never hear it too much, here’s another:
I love you like the waves love the shore, with the sea endlessly rushing in, wrapping up with you and always coming back for more.
That’s what this love of ours is for.

Maybe I’m just a dreamer,
to sit here and think
that maybe one weekend,
it could be me.
Sitting beside you as we go for a drive,
sharing stories and laughter—
man, I dream of a wonderful time.
How could it not be wonderful when you’re involved?
Your sweet, caring demeanor lifts me from the fog. To have someone want to spend time with little ol’ me,
not just someday down the road,
but on a trip, seeing things we’d love to see.
I’d be happy wherever we’d go.
It would bring me such peace,
just holding your hand, oh so close. I may be too much, just an ordinary mess,
but baby, I can’t help but think
spending time alone, just you and me, would be the best.
To lay beside you, held close in your arms,
heck, I’d even be the big spoon if you chose. Maybe I’m just a dreamer,
but what a wonderful dream to dream.
Spending time with a man I love, crave, and need.

When I think of a masterpiece,
It’s your reflection staring back at me.
Look closer, see what I see.
A vision of worth, shining and free.  
You may think you’re anything but enough,
But baby, to me, you’re a canvas painted with love.
No brush of mine could ever compare
To the beauty you hold, so vivid, so rare.  Your eyes, they pierce straight to my heart,
Melting me soft into a puddle, a bright start.
Your smile’s colors light up my soul,
Brightening my world, making me whole.  You’re a masterpiece in the way you move,
In the peace of your words, in the love you prove.
Even when my stories falter or bore,
You listen, you see me, you make me feel more.
