This Emotion...
By: Kitsune
I am feeling warm and secure
Wrapped in these arms, knowing their strength
Knowing their difference from mine
I don't feel alone anymore, ah
I'm content to stay here, because
Once I stand, I'll be alone again
Fiercely hiding the softer feelings until they never show...
Until your touch, that slide of skin
I feel a person who is not myself
Yet the same as I am
Lost and lonely, as I am
The warmth that suffuses my heart, spreading
Breaks all the locks
It frees all hidden in the dark
I bathe in light brighter than the sun
A smile lives on my face when with you
I don't care if everyone sees it and wonders
Let them talk and speculate, spreading their lies
This emotion is not pain, I don't have to hide it
This emotion is not love, I don't have to say it
Does a feeling, hung between love and like, have a name?
I am safe with you, I trust you like my brother
I am relaxed with you, I can count you as a closest friend
We have seen the childish sides of each other, and we grin in conspiracy
Whether in the future our paths lay next to each other or split apart --
I am happy in knowing you as I do, a comfortable feeling.
