Burns inside like I'm alive
I'm not afraid to die ~ not afraid to try
afraid of leaving this place tonight
afraid of ripping my soul in two
~half to keep my body alive
~half that stays here with you
An infected touch
   that brings addiction
a neverending hunger for
   just one more touch
a never-bending desire for
   what I need so much

...torn between what was "right" and honorable and the pull of my emotions, body, heart, & soul. I am ashamed to say I was not honorable, I succombed to a pull so strong that it transcended many years and hundreds of miles...and eventually led to my true love.
