Waiting for the First Kiss

Perhaps we are but two broken souls
    Knowing not where our hearts comfort lies.

I’ve spent so many months hiding, running
    So many things seemed so unreal.

I am ready to heal now, to stop hiding
    I want to embrace this, embrace you.

Because my thoughts of you are like
    Warm hugs on a cold night.

And for the first time I feel no fear
    As I share myself with you slowly

Last night I dreamed of us together
    Against your body all night long

I love the way you make me smile
    Every time you speak to me

You give me the strength I need
    To accept desires I forgot so long ago

With you, I’m not afraid to open my heart
    Which I have happily kept closed

Unaware where this will go, or end
    Only knowing I can’t wait for the start
