finding comfort in those eyes
yet looking away in fear of rejection

feasting in your smile when you're not looking,
drifting at peace when looking away,
knowing your gaze is fixed on me

striving for more of your touch,
yet pulling away terrified of making a mistake.

serenity is so easily reachable,
i find myself wondering,
where have you been all my life?
