I push you away,

but you always return.

Each finger slowly 

clutches my heart.

 

My head is in shambles,

my body draws further...

Yet you grab my hand 

with such boldness.

 

I'm so confused,

Don't know what I want...

Your tight embrace

makes it hard to breathe.

 

"Don't run away,"

You stare into my eyes

How can you do this~

Warmth takes over.
