The butterflies in my stomach bring me to my knees and I won't even try to stand if i can stay by your side. Watching the time on the VCR blink away empty minutes: zero 0 zero 0 zero oh oh oh oh Here we go. The smell of cleaning solution is overpowering and antiseptic. It snakes into my nostrils and erases your scent. Your natural perfume. The smell of summer rains and new romance. The smell of fresh beginnings. My favorite. Every second without you is painful detox. And my body still aches... Your fingers on hips and my lips beg for more. I can't handle this. I'm going down. //I'm sinking like a stone in the sea. I'm burning like a bridge for your body. And I can't wait the hours out. I won't. I'll lie on my bed and imagine you're next to me/your eyes deeper than oceans and your fingers laced in mine. I'll hold the feelings that drift through my heart. I'll grab onto something tried and true. But I'm still drowning here, without you. I love being with you. Sitting in your car/held in your arms. The wind howling over our heads but we don't even notice. I'm wrapped up in you. I'm expecting something beautiful. I'm realizing this is real. This is as tangible as my fingers in your hair. I'm shaking something fierce. From cold and nerves. From this feeling of unspeakable joy I'm bathed in whenever you're near. I'm wishing I could stay in your embrace forever. I miss you already.
