*Holding Back

You won't make a commitment

That is already known

But you haven't seen anyone else

For several months now

You've spent a lot of time with me

Making excuses to stop by and visit

The softness in your eyes is more

Than simple friendship

The power of your kiss is deeper

Your touches and words

Are softer and more caring

You call me yours

When others are around

Yet you claim there's nothing there

I've never been wrong about this

Your smile, your caress, your kiss

They are more meaningful

Than what you gave me 2 months ago

More sincere than what others get

Is it possible I'm just imagining

Or maybe you're afraid

Of what might come from this

Your attraction is obvious

So why are you holding back?
