And there I was,
caught between your eyes
(and mine)
breathless;
speechless.
Craving the oxygen
your lips would yield.
And I would return,
(so would you; silent)
without a thought
without a word
just another smile;
Another taste
of water I should not drink.
And here we are,
(caught again)
between two lives.
A lie so sweet,
and a truth even sweeter,
that I,
and my body,
(and your touch)
and my lips,
(and yours; of course?)
lose boundaries I could careless about.
Once more,
I will return (and so will you).
And there we were again,
(alone)
savoring,
without time
without reality
(alone)
taking in everything I cannot have.
Just,
Because,
(with an honest heart)
I can.
- Alejandro Bonfil
