Red Tape

I want to hold you in my arms,

feel your body sandwiched to mine.

...put my nose in your hair.

I slowly vacuum from there

to your neck.

My lips make a gentle

contact like it's the

soap cleaning your skin.

I want to hold you deep into the night,

feel your passion blossom with mine.

I place my head on your lips,

let its warmth make me calm.

After a hectic day,

on you I crash.

I want to hold you an never let go,

together we burn brighter

than the brightest flame.

We are addicted to each other

like we are one and the same.

I want no distance,

not by miles or centimeters.

I'm there next to you,

as we figure out what our lives would be.

Every step I take

and every beauty you create.

It would be as a collective

of you and I.

I want to hold you,

farther down into the deep.

The minute places my words can't reach.

B'cos they're masked

beneath its grip.

I want to hold you

like a wish that came true.

That very feeling bursting

in a lady's mind

when her true love

goes on one knee

and pop the question

that dries up the sea.

'cos she won't stop crying

when she sees the ring.

I want to hold you

like that moment was here.

You feel it coming,

nearer and nearer.

We are no longer virtual,

just flesh upon flesh.

I want to hold you now,

can't hide how I feel

about you any longer.

It's too real to keep in a closet,

and pretend the timing is odd.

What other time could there be

if not now.
