Fire

You set me on fire

With your hands

And with your eyes

The way they roam over my body

Yet never move to another girl

My flame for you is growing

And your touch is like lighter fluid

My words are like smoke

But I hold them in

Because I'm afraid of hurting you

Or scaring you away

That my words will fill this room

Make you feel suffocated

Make your touch change

From lighter fluid to water

As you realise

Your eyes have never touched my soul

Only my body

And mine have roamed your heart

And want what's inside it

And want you to have mine

But your eyes never strayed from my body

Not even to my eyes
