Hurt's Prison

Your hands do not stimulate 
me like your mind can
And yet, I feel your tender 
touch
Gently caressed by your eyes 
as laughter washes over me
I cannot be fragile in your 
presence
You boldly tip me over, 
revealing my insides of glass 
used to reflect you
 But intact my feelings will not 
stay hidden
 for just the thought of you 
a smile breaks free from my heart.
