I wish I could get what I want
Without crossing any lines
Without obligations
Just succumbing to pleasure
No judgment, no complaints
No questioning of actions and anxiety
Letting our bodies decide
Sliding into each other's thoughts, feelings, pants
Colliding, groaning, neglecting
The insignificant events outside
Of our space

I wish I could make it our space
I wish there weren't so many obstacles
Keeping me alone and away from you
Are those forces permanent?
And if they are, am I powerful enough to withstand them
On my way to you

Will you wait for me?
As I'm crumbling to pieces in front of you
As I'm spilling my blood and soul just to prove my conviction
Suppose I never reach you, abandon my quest
Will you forget, or will our memories last?
Of those we want but cannot have.
