You are too beautiful
to be touched
by anyone, by me
alone, I hope
if I may, if I dare
to do what someone may one day
I pass your house
There is only a window
between me and your bed
in which I dream myself
when I cannot sleep
and hold my breath
and time stands still
intoxicated by your lips
I feel your hand
on my chest, no
I won't run away
when you open the door
