to love another

because my computer skills are really bad, this is like my 2nd attempt and putting this up
i wrote this in class today, i was pretty bored.

In our minds you turned to me,
And I followed you.
A swift advance and a soft embrace.
With a gentle voice you uttered a question.
You said it so confidently but it made me weak.
it was one I could not answer

my thoughts, they were loud.
not that my desires were not yet known,
but by the grace of loyalty I could not bare,
I could not respond with clear conscience,
for I know that my will is ill fated

I beg you not to press my tongue to words,
not to tempt nor to tease or to try me again.
You were strong in your ways,
determined for truth.

What I cannot voice to you, I show to you.
With every smile that I give to you,
when I blush with every touch.
Only honesty in my hands, outstretched
yet there you are back handed.

In our minds you hold me
I already, am yours.
When in the truth of practicality,
we are caged worlds apart.
We met in an enclosure for peace of mind,
now in pieces our minds have us enclosed.

Yes, in my mind, I hold no secrets,
I tell no lies and shed no tears.
How must I answer you faithfully?
Whilst I sign over my key, to another keeper.

Our boundaries are short,
a line fragile and thin.
What I see from us, as you ask,
what only I wish were truly just.
To have and to hold,
to kiss and to weep.

It is in my mind that my body is yours.
It is in your heart that my feelings belong.
But our weariness stays,
it is in fate that we ask to be so simple.

Such love at first sight,
is blinded by reality.
I fear that you will turn,
if I do not plea to follow you.

in our minds you advance on me,
i let you in, so trusting.
you whisper the unsurities of your thoughts,
"will you be mine?"
you need to know..

but what i want from you,
is everything from our minds.
everything, that is,
that i cannot posses,
without a clear voice to validate it.

imaginings not bound to my fantasy,
but spoken in words
and confirmed with a kiss.
when this is not but a dream,
but your eyes can show me
that love is real at this sight

just then, maybe,
i will have the answer.

Hey,

That is very good! It's written really well!
