My hands are shaking
Tears run down my cheeks
How my body is aching
Feeling so defeat

Hold me closer to you
I can feel your heartbeat
If only you knew
How this feeling could be so sweet

Be with me now
It's me who should be afraid
I'm sorry for being so loud
I never meant to push you away

Too anxious to tell you
what's going on
I can tell though
this is what you want

I'm not running away
forgive me now
I'm begging you to stay
The words just won't come out
Probably lyrics to a song that I would never have the musical ability to create. // Run //
Amanda Kay Burke Mar 2018
You are close enough
To reach out and touch but too
Far away to feel
When someone you used to know like the back of your hand turns into a stranger

What a gorgeous sunflower you are
warm like a hot sunny day in the park
Little glowing light in the dark

Soft like freshly baked bread
I can't get enough of you
Your polaroid pictures are stuck in my head

I breathe you in as if it was my last breath
Your scent makes me lose the grip of reality
All I want to do now is to take you to my bed
So we can travel to
                                     infinity

When in your presence there's no worry
You only make me feel so holy
I want to be closer to your divine
I'll do everything to make you happy
If you agree to be mine
Kartikeya Jain Mar 2018
And when you leave
I want you to
put your lips onto mine
one last time.
It is the closest
I'll ever feel to love again.
Jessica Jarvis Mar 2018
Lean in further, for I will list
Sing a song, for I am listening

Reach for me, for I will draw
Watch me write, for I am drawing

Hold me once, for I am close
Do it now, for time is closing

Proximity can be such a precious thing when accompanied by infatuation.
Kathleen Rose Mar 2018
It flickers
on the screen
the last
of what
was soon to be
amazing things
Self-sabotage

A slow rumbling
   Deep down

         F
           A
              L
                 L
                    I

Tumultuous tumbling
   Head first into the abyss.
From happy to sad and back again
MAR Feb 2018
Looking into your hazel eyes I found a new world
I learned what it was like to find someone
Who wants every part of you for themselves
I know even now sitting here telling myself
That my heart can't afford to face darkness again
That surely there is going to be a moment
Where you'll look into my eyes
Grab my hands and wrap your fingers between mine
Hold me tight through the night
Wake up in the morning and look at me generously
As your body sinks into mine
And I will fall completely for you
And I will forget what it is like to be alone.
Part of my "Infinite Parts" series, dedicated to you.
