i was scared we rushed us
too fast rather than taking
things slow
but you held on to the fact
our connection was different
than something you ever hadyou enjoyed the fact i couldn't
keep my hands of you,
always wanting to be holding your
hands or lightly massaging
your arms – enjoying every
moment beside youi was lost in you
while you were lost in the
constant affection
you always lacked in your
lifeyou'd think that would keep
you within my embrace
not lead you to the arms
of another
