Her body was motionless
and her face was supple and sweet
she was warm and tender

Sleep.....

My lips, close, yet not quite touching
a whisper, my hand softly embracing her body
her hands and mine....

Sleep... a soft embrace....
Those vinous lips I used to kiss
are now kissing another....
I want to suffocate under the sweetness of her lips
How could I love her
if I could never love myself...
I spent my entire life trying to escape
Only to find that my soul finds healing
In the very place I refused to call home
I cried,
When I realized
This could be love,

Too unfounded.

Now, I believe
That love is
Like crossing a street
With confidence,
A face steadfast.

Then,

There's a sudden feeling
Of almost getting hit
By a speeding car.
And it happens
Every second.

From there,

You felt like,
Never crossing
The line again.

But still,

Ever-wanting
To reach the other side,
You remain there
Standing
Hoping you can move on.

And as,

Courage strike
You take a step
Secretly hoping
To get hit head on.
And now, FOR SURE.

But,

No matter how much
Time you take,
All you see
Is a car
Waiting before
Pedestrian lane.

"Go out, please. Go get me. ."

But.

beep! *beep! *beep!

You run ahead
Looking at that car
Who just speed ahead.

You overthink,
If he wants you safe
Or
Just playing safe.
So you cross
Again and again
Realizing
YOU'RE STILL ALIVE.
