You look at me different
Like no ones ever looked at me
You caress my face, and I melt
I run my fingers through your hair and get lost
Please don’t come find me
You have the power to make me transcend into another world
In a world where its just you and I
Laughing and smiling in a place where there are no quandaries
Nothing that could ever keep us apart
You tuck my hair behind my ear
And my heart feels whole
My soul recognizes something in you
Something I cannot attempt to describe
When good things come to my life
I think of you
When bad thoughts come to my head
Your voice heals me . . .

Then reality sets in
The tears come rolling down uncontrollably
Pain radiates from my torso
My stomach and heart feel as if they’re being ripped out of my body
Tears faster now, like waves crashing against the shores of my quivering lips
You hear me now, my cheeks flush with embarrassment
Your eyes fill with remorse as you see me upset for the first time
I have to go soon
But the thought of not being with you makes my soul cry
I feel my heart break as words from your soft lips are not what I needed to hear
I changed the rules
I know, this isn’t what we both agreed to
But wont you change the rules with me?

…Please
