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.
