The restless lover

no matter who you are, there will be one person in your life who would give you the shaky hands when they touch you..

I can't handle it any more.

The restlessness, The shyness,....

Everything that's explainable and everything that is not.

Everything that can be felt over my body and some that I try to control.

Some things that i wish to show outside and everything I want to hide.

My mind that wanders and the thoughts that are blurred.

Your face that excites me and your presence that agitates me.

Your smell that bless life into me and your touch that conk me, freeze me....

All I want is to hold you close and when I come close to you

my whole body shakes, disobeys, seize to move

and all I reciprocate back is a blank stare.


Why can't i hold your hand, look you into your eyes,

sweep you off towards me and tell you how I feel.

All this looks like a mammoth task, that my first response is to look away.


All I want is you. Nothing else runs through me right now, nothing else moves me now.

Nothing else for which I want my heart to pump blood through me and feel my pulse to run deep.


Be mine. Because my love, I am already yours.
