Loving but Distant Touch,

It scares me. My heart grows weak and my breath fades away.
Everything we shared -every moment, every day- It sinks in my mind.

The thought of your gentle touch, There's nothing I would trade for
that. I loved you so much. Your lips pressed to mine at the end of a
dark night Sent heavenly chills down my spine, full of love and fright

Fear of a loss too great to compare Fear of losing it all, having nothing
to share. Looking back through the tears, I see you there Holding me
tight.

Your fingers running gently through my hair. You looking deep into
my eyes as I glance up to the sky. When you're not here holding me,
all I want to do is die.

Those words you said with such ease Killed this world inside me "Baby,
give me time. I need to get things straight." Well, since then I have not
gone on a single date. The phone does not ring. My heart no longer
sings And this space in my heart fades each day Wanting, waiting,
hoping and wishing you'd stay.

Another tear slips my eyes, bloodshot and weak. My voice is faded and I
yearn only to speak. Here in the cold dark I await my death Because
here I sit growing short of breath. What is a crying, hurting guy to do?
Nothing, nothing but to love you.

Connel
