Intimate

Drawn to closeness then blinded by betrayal
Swept up by love then humiliated by its loss
Driven by hope then bound by fear.

You smelled the scent of fear in what I write
As though your mind was created for me
Your answer to me has blown my words into flight

Only by revealing
Secrets of the past
You have stopped my head from reeling

Waiting a lifetime for you, a connection as strong as death
Magic off your voice, it has given me life
Knowing you believe in me, i await you like my own breath
