Watching You

Your words for me are

like a waterfall in the desert

Your sorrow as well

I am consumed by

What I feel

No matter how much I give you my dear

Within seconds

Of watching you

Within hours

Of thinking of you

My heart beats faster

making me feel

intoxicated it feels so real

I die and cease to exist

Only to be given, life in your dreams

The memory of you is so strong

It erases all others

Always in my mind

I’ve had an awakening

Of different feelings

Watching your lithe form

From dawn to the end of my days

Ohhhh... Watching you

But if I had to choose between

Walking over troubled water

Or feeling you are close to me

I choose the latter, to protect you
