How close?


How close can you go without saying to someone, All the things you keep bottled up inside, Your true thoughts, How you really feel, How close can you go without saying it? How close can you go without saying, “You are my first and last thought each day.” How close can you go without saying, “Every minute that I don’t hear from you feels like a year.” How close can you go without saying, “My favorite place is in your arms.” How close can you go without saying, “My best day ever was spent with you.” How close can you go without saying, “I want to call you mine forever.” How close can you go without saying, “I love you.”
