Caressed (Part 1)

Picture from deviantart.com My heart skips a beat when you come close to me, and when you put your arms around me, I can’t breathe. I just want to stay that way, not wanting to let go off you.  But you leave… You let go off my hands, and turn away from me. You leave me scared. My mind goes blank. My heart-empty.  ***** ‘Kate wake up! George is back’ my sister screams into my ears and tugs at me to get up from the bed. For once I don’t mind cause it was George I was going to see.  ‘That boy is some sight, don’t you think so?’ I say, peeping from my window.  What a way to start my morning!

I switch on the lights again. I’m still awake and still scared to close my eyes. Getting off my bed, I light a cigarette and lie down in my balcony. It’s cold. The smoke warms me.

I hide Yet you come find me.  I run And you come catch me.  I say nothing, But you listen to my silence. I'm scared, Yet you give me the courage to love you. I tremble, And you hold me. When I'm shattered, You fix me. When I sit alone, You become my shoulder You comfort me. My walls you break, My heart you enter.. In you I find myself. With you I leave everything behind. Every moment You make beautiful.
