his manicured hands
lightly brush against mine
only for a second
but I feel the electricity
he talks and I can’t help
but be drawn to his lips
how soft and warm
they appear to be
his eyes dance
when he starts to laugh
then suddenly turn gentle
with a softened look
I know he would hold me
if only I would ask
the temptation is so strong
for I feel so all alone
but this is not the time for passion
he’s only just a friend
who’s more than I could handle
and all that I’ll ever want

I care about you
Give my heart some credit
Don’t ignore my feelings
I yearn for you
Give me your touch
Don’t ignore my needs
I love you
Give me your heart
Don’t ignore me

Fire in my heart
Desire in my body
Thoughts only of you
But it will never be
You see me only
As a friend
Someone to talk to
Not a body worth touching
Someone to laugh with
Not a heart to beat with
But in my eyes
We are bound by more
We know each other so well
We are souls entwined
In a closeness that is
A once in a lifetime union
If only I could be enough for you
Written for Fandango’s One-Word Challenge (FOWC) – bound
What can I do
You are always on my mind
This constant yearning
Is tearing me apart
I should not feel this way
But when does the heart
Ever follow the rules
You are with another
And all I can do is dream
So I close my eyes
And place myself in your arms
To satisfy my craving
If only for a moment
