A Touch Never Felt

How can you ache and crave for someone's touch

When you have never felt it?

I do this for yours, though,

And the yearning grows more each day

I have never wanted anything in my life

As much as I want you

When you whisper such sweet love

In my ear when we talk

You make me melt into a puddle

Of complete helplessness

You have become my every waking thought

And my every dream at night

I breathe in so hard

Trying to catch my breath when we can't talk

I close my eyes so tight

Hoping when I open them you will be there

But I know I have to wait

Until the time is right

It seems so far away

That I think I am losing my mind

I want to breathe in your scent

And keep it with me all day long

I want to taste your love for me

By kissing your sweet lips

I want to feel your body next to me

So when you leave for awhile I can hold on

I just want you to know

That I really do love you

When the day comes and we are together

You will always know and feel this

I will always hug, kiss and love you

Every moment of the day and night

...You will never have another touch unfelt
