Miss You

I miss you

miss your arms around me

miss the smile you give me

when what I say

it makes sense to you.

You listen to me

listen like no one has ever done

making me wonder

who you are

what your game is with me.

Why do you reach out?

Why do you make me feel?

I was content for it to be playful

no emotions

no feelings.

You changed the game

or was it me?

And now we look at one another

eyes hooded with lust

with desire

with trust.

All I want to do

is crawl into your arms

to have you stare into my eyes

I want to wrap my legs around

draw you close

baby please draw me near.

We are scared

we are daring

we want one another

what we don’t want

is the pain

the fear

that we carry in our hearts.
