How It Feels Just To Be Near You

i'm sitting here
and you're sitting here
and we're just both here
sitting
and breathing
and sitting and breathing
together,

and i want to bring my lips
to yours
so we're both just
kissing
and breathing
and kissing and breathing
together,

but it's hard enough to sit
without falling into your arms
and it's hard enough to breathe
because we sit so close
and it's even harder to kiss
because it's so hard to breathe,

and so right now
we are sitting and breathing together
without our lips together
but we are existing together
and i believe that in itself
is beautiful;

to find someone
to sit and breathe with
as well as we sit and breathe together
i believe that in itself
is a miracle,

and when we do finally kiss
i know the world itself
will stop.
