Your arms seem almost familiar
A warm hold around my heart
A utopia between your sheets
As I curl up onto your chest
Your warmth resonates upon my face
I could stay there forever
Basking in your cologne
A smell I have since missed
I find comfort in your name
Knowing you are always there
Ready to take away my pain
And lull away my worry
It’s been this way for years
But I know I can’t stay
For you will never see me as I see you
You will never long for my company
Or find solace in my gaze
You will never crave my touch
You will never love me
I want so badly not to love you
So I may hold onto you a little longer
But the comfort of your name begins to fade
Bringing sorrow and yearning for a love
That will never be returned
And for that I must go
For as long as I have you
I fear I can never love another
