I want to get close to you

by Michael D Nalley   Mar 12, 2008


I want to tell you all the things you would like to hear
I desire to take from you all the things that you fear
Get so close to you I learn the secrets of your soul.
I wish you were near enough to me to make me whole

How is it we can feel all alone and so far apart?
I'm close enough to feel the rhythm of your heart
Do you know that all my thoughts belong to you?
Please forgive me for the things I do, and fail to do

I don't want to be someone you would reprimand
I would love to be the one you could understand
No words that I can think of were ever more true
If you want to get closer to me let me get closer to you

    This was really sweet and caring, I really love your writing, it's very simple yet beautiful. The only thing that I don't like is that all the poems that I've read are very similar to each other, I feel as if they could almost all be part of one poem. You're a great writer though.
    5/5
