Your Eyes

I hold you so close that I feel your breath
Our hearts beating as one, so close I feel it deeply
I find myself staring into your eyes, those pure pools of green
Tarnished they are not by the pain you've felt
Vibrant and with a glow that seems to draw me deeper
I could happily live in darkness 
If the only light I had was your eyes

Your skin is soft to the touch
I feel electrified as I gently stroke my fingers down your face
Down your back to your hips, the perfect resting place
Our bodies entwined, perfection

Our faces draw close, 
My breathing catches,
I've suddenly lost my mind,
I've fallen deeply into lust,
Suddenly I feel the fear,
What if, but maybe....

I can take it no more, 
Screw the consequences,
You are worth the risk

My hands are no longer gentle
No longer tentative to the touch of you
I'm urgent in my desire
It's a burning passion that fights the cool night air

You taste like heaven itself
I can't breathe
I don't want to breathe
All there is to do is to stare into your eyes

Those pools of green, that unearthly glow, the light in the night.
