The Space Between (Us): Part 2

Dreamy gazes turn to flushed cheeks that turn away fleetingly.

Barely there touches,

warmly received,

Lasting longer than necessary.

A beauty in my eyes,

I’ve longed for you longer than I realized.

My mind tells me to keep my distance,

But my heart dreams of your kisses.

An instant connection is what we had,

I’ve known you forever,

Or so it seems.

Our meeting,

Feels like it was destiny.

But I worry that our fate will be a tragedy;

I must keep up my guard,

Or I’ll fall for you wholly.

Keeping you close,

It feels like a beautiful dream,

But every time I look behind me,

All I see is agony,

And I fall back into my nightmares,

Fears and ghosts of the past haunting me.

But you’re right beside me;

I push you away,

Say things that I don’t mean (to say).

I just want to keep you safe

Because you are the world to me.

You always push back,

Fighting, for me, for us.

Showing me that together,

Maybe we have a chance at changing the future,

The fate I keep seeing,

In my tainted vision;

Painted with all of my past sins.

When you’re holding me,

I think that maybe,

Just maybe,

We can defeat what the future holds for me.

For us.

Longing looks and gentle caresses

You place your hand over mine for comfort.

With each touch,

Each loving glance,

You leave me in a trance,

Guiding me out of my past.

Blurb of Dialogue:

“Do you want me?” She asked me.

“Do I…Do I want you? I…that’s a difficult question for me to answer,” I said.

“Yes, do you want me?”

“I want many things for you. I want you to be safe. I want you not to be involved in my whole mess. I don’t want you to get hurt. I’m afraid that I’ll only cause you pain. I feel like anyone who becomes involved with me, feels so much suffering, and I don’t want that for you, my darling. But, most of all, yes…I want you.”
