Overwhelmed By Love

I sit here, my fingers poised
Eager to write something real
But my head is so full
So confused by what I feel

So I’m writing this, hoping
It will turn to something great
Because I feel a need to write
And that it can not wait

Tonight I realized, that I am
In true love for the first time
I thought I felt it before
But this man is my life line

He seems perfect and yet
He is someone I can not touch
In the way I’d like too
And these feelings have become too much

When I speak with him
I want to pull him near
Want to kiss him, hold him
I want him always here

And I can see, in his eyes
That he feels the same
But damned rules keep us apart
And are causing me this pain

I have told him how I feel
He has confessed he feels it, too
Instead of making me feel better,
But I feel worse: cos I can not be with you.
