The Same

My heart aches when you look at me
My soul crumbles when you call my name
When you sound a perfect chorus of laughter, my knees weaken
When your arms wrap me in a loving embrace, I feel as though I might collapse

But you don't know...

A chill runs down my spine when you gently push back my hair
When you stare into my eyes, I turn away, my cheeks flushing
Your hand caresses my face, your finger smoothly running across my jaw,
Your staunch arms arch around me, providing effortless support, being my strength

But you don't know...

My heart shatters when I look up at you, seeing the love in your eyes,
Me not wanting to see them change

But you don't know...

... That I don't feel the same
