Why Do You Shake When Around Me

In your presence, a trembling dance unfolds, Why do you shake, a mystery untold? Each moment shared, a delicate quake, Like dropped perfume, memories break. At my mom's farewell, a somber day, Our worlds collided in an unusual way. Others observed, a subtle connection, In shared grief, a silent reflection. Amidst the whispers, a lingering desire, Yet, your silence fans love's quiet fire. Why won't you call, unveil the enigma? In the unsaid words, emotions stigma. Around me, tremors echo unexplained, A dance of nerves, feelings unrestrained. Perfumed memories, a fragrant cloak, In the unspoken, our hearts bespoke.
