Naked

In the abyss of your arms, I dive without escape, where passion is a fire that consumes me without end. Your smile is a beacon that lights up my darkness, and your gaze, a sea that pulls me with its tide. But I can’t help it, I’d stay in your embrace, just one more minute, inches close to your face, seconds from exploding. It scares me to love you, because I know I already love you too much, and each day I love you a little more. I can't resist, I surrender to your charm. I am a prisoner of your eyes, a slave to your grace, a castaway in a sea of uncertainty, without hope or a trace. But in your arms, I find my shelter, my safe harbor, my home forever. I don't want you to mean this much to me, I don’t want to love you so, but what a daunting task. I'd pay just to see your smile, in your tender way of being, of loving. I'd stay in your arms, just one more minute it seems. I guess I’d rather love you madly, and come to adore you, than never know what could have been. I fear losing it, I fear losing you, but I can't help it, I love you, I need you, I do.
