Something pulls my mind into focus Feel the urge to glance up Your eyes reach into my soul I grin, then blink You're gone Feel your hands grasp my shoulders Head falling back Our eyes connect Then your grip slips away And I'm staring into space again We openly gaze across rooms But never speak in public The rule unspoken Is it mine or yours? Just know it's been here all along So we steal quiet touches in the dark Moments Like messages on foggy windows Fingertips caressing glass Hurriedly writing words before it fades We share the same space Yet never together Waiting for the day We both can come clean To the ones who judge us most

My Ghost
Something pulls my mind into focus Feel the urge to glance up Your eyes reach into my soul I grin, then blink You're gone Feel your hands grasp my shoulders Head falling back Our eyes connect Then your grip slips away And I'm staring into space again We openly gaze across rooms But never speak in public The rule unspoken Is it mine or yours? Just know it's been here all along So we steal quiet touches in the dark Moments Like messages on foggy windows Fingertips caressing glass Hurriedly writing words before it fades We share the same space Yet never together Waiting for the day We both can come clean To the ones who judge us most
