Unknowns of Love
Quiet shivers, exploding from head to toe
Pulses quicken, heart's race
Each crawling out of their own skin
Wanting, longing to touch,
But too scared of what comes next
Unknowing, unsure, no words to cure
Every sensation, every spark, filling up the dark
One moment everything bare,
By a kiss that would dare
Passion and fear, all things made clear
Where they go from here,
Is the question that remains
A question left unsaid
Unanswered for only the heavens to know
Where they will go
A fond embrace, the close of a door,
What happens next no one knows for sure
