I can barely stand The nearness of you. Your sleeping body shifts And you capture me with slumbering arms. The warm breath at the back of my neck Melts the frozen parts of me, But there is no use for a lukewarm heart. Can't you see how your fingertips linger Or how you scorch me with the warmth of your skin? This closeness could be the end of me. You, all of you, Eyes like chocolate And lips like strawberries, I want it all. And your touch Is driving me mad.

So, So Close
I can barely stand The nearness of you. Your sleeping body shifts And you capture me with slumbering arms. The warm breath at the back of my neck Melts the frozen parts of me, But there is no use for a lukewarm heart. Can't you see how your fingertips linger Or how you scorch me with the warmth of your skin? This closeness could be the end of me. You, all of you, Eyes like chocolate And lips like strawberries, I want it all. And your touch Is driving me mad.
