Hold me close with your words;

Open my heart with a glance. Just

Please tread lightly through my dreams,

Even one touch of yours fuels those

Foolish musings, those young desires, those great and heart-wrenching hopes of mine.

Undress my secret aching with a laugh.

Let me drink the thought of loving you; I'll sip until my lungs are raw and dry. My greatest hope is poison all in one: that your thought of loving me is just as fried.
