i might tell you how much I enjoy being
with you as if you couldn’t tell
(i am that transparent)
but it would be without true meaning
i should let you know how each of your kisses
paralyze me for a beautiful brief instant
(which is why I have to pull away and reset)
but it would not really matter
i could describe the pain in my chest
when we are apart
(that is sometimes accompanied by tears)
but what would be the point
