feeling it

every time I think of you

my heart swells, pounding

dancing joyously in my chest

whenever I ponder what might be

my mind wanders/wonders

lost in a daydream of possibility

thoughts of you come faster and faster

taking me, stealing my breath, lifting me up

leaving me starry eyed and (magnificently) distracted

is this what I think it is? no....couldn't be (could it?)

it's been so long since I've felt this way

it's a warm, wonderful, unfamiliar feeling

like the embrace of God, so inviting

do you feel it too? or is it just a trick of my heart?

I've been deceived before, betrayed by my hopes

sometimes you want something so badly

you're willing to run toward the mirage...so thirsty

but I feel you so this can't be a mirage (can it?)

run with me and let's find out together

I know it's scary, I get that...so what?

if you hold my hand and look me in the eyes

feel the touch of my lips on yours, so soft

trust in your heart as I have come to

the world only holds the power we give it

let's take it back, let's live this dream

nothing is more courageous than real love

and you haven't lived/loved until you've felt it

it lives in the dream of your kiss...
