Your Lips

Your lips so close to me, My wistful dream Tantalizing, like a cat with a string I long for your lips with my every being; To taste your love with mine I find myself pining for you, Wanting to do all I can do To draw you in sweet embrace; Steal your breath without trace Drawing tingles down your spine I find myself glimpsing your way Often wishing you'd choose to stay; Because of that damaging dream so sweet, A hidden secret, a treasure, a treat But reality burns for more- for your lips so fine I was given a vision of heaven, When I, on your lips kissed you seven And all of time could stand still So I and my love, bend to your every will- Then I opened my eyes and the two worlds failed to collide My heart ripped from my chest in bitter despair; For while you are there, Never could you imagine just what you and those lips do to me I Long to meet our lips together and show you all I can be I find myself mesmerized by your lips, but still to you I lied I hid my fantasy in the falsehood of a dream When it's the wish for your kiss that makes my eyes gleam I longed to take your lovely face in my hands But fear took hold and destroyed my plans Now forever I wish for you- your lips by my side Your lips, so far from me My wistful, unattainable dream...
