The days are passing by so quickly
I fell like I haven't time at all
To show you all that I feel
To love you and breathe alongside you
To feel our heartbeats simultaneously
When our bodies are intertwined
And our hands are exploring unconditionally

There was all the time in the world
Before, you see
Now, quite suddenly
Each minute pulls us further apart
Every night I grow lonelier than alone
This aching, this longing
Goes unquenched
This fire
Burns me up inside

Yet there you sit, idly passing time
Nothing seems to phase you
My imminent parting seemingly, unnoticed
I want to scream ~ Take me please!
Can't you see I have wanted this forever?
Don't deny me! Don't leave me
So horribly unfulfilled!

But then...

I collect myself
I take stock of the life I have
I climb back inside the box
I continue through the motions
Putting time and distance
Between you and me
Between me
And my yearning for you

Its a battle that never seems to end
