Like They Do In The Movies

I can go so long without it

Without the desire, that wanting feeling

Perfected the act of letting go & not caring

Proving to the world that I'm fine

On my own

It's just every now and again

When I have to fight my twitching fingers

When a battle arises between my body and mind

and I feel a quite literal

tearing of my soul

Sitting in mere pain

Trying to control myself

It's only every now and again

That I crave touch

The feeling of your arms around me

Warmth surrounding

Your lips and mine colliding

Mistakenly

Just you

holding me

Like they do

in the movies.
