Further

Touch me again,
hold me tighter.
Pull my arms around your neck.
I want to feel your pulse beneath my lips.
No.
Don't go that far.
I want to keep the innocence in my eyes
and the sweetness in my smile.

Let's talk until the night grows
tired of our murmurings.
Tell me a secret.
Brush your lips gently against my ear.
Let your words tingle on my skin.
I'll tell you everything I couldn't before,
when I was afraid it would ruin this kiss.

Trace your meaning on my stomach.
I'll run my fingers through your hair.
Let's stay this way until the world ends.
Alone beneath an endless sky of
untold secrets,
together where it means nothing to be apart.
We'll leave all our doubts behind.

Our masquerade is naivety
and our reason is love.
Touch me again
No.
We can't let it get that far.
Hold my hands,
don't give in to temptation.
We'll lace our fingers together
and swear we're safe for now.
We're safe for now.
