I want you

I don’t want you like they do in movies No soundtrack, no grand speeches, no long dialogues Just skin to skin, lips to your neck A glance through shadows on the wall Silence between words where breathing is louder than thoughts I want you right here, right now No promises, no empty words Just to be near, just to be But I’m scared you’re just like all the rest You’ll say this and then go silent forever I’ll become just another story on the side Without you ever looking me in the eyes I don’t want you out of habit, not for the 'gram To erase every border, forget time exists Your pulse under my fingers, your trembling laugh This moment sharp as the first summer rain I want you right here, right now No promises, no empty words Just to be near, just to be But can you just stay silent next to me Not save me, not teach me, not lie Hold my hand and not let go Even when it’s terrifying No soundtrack, no grand speeches Just to be near Just to be
