in the darkness
of your room

we whisper
in white sheets
with
warm skin

I tell you
that I love you

I open my heart
naked
and give it to you

you say
you are crying

you say


with my
fingertips
you touch your eyes

but I feel no tears
I can't see you
in the dark
tonight

the pang
is still real
in my chest

it's still as bare
and naked
as I was
to you

so beautiful
and pure
in the dark

with my eyes
closed

Sometimes, we must close our eyes in order to see.  Think you expressed this well.
Welcome to Passions!
