Dancing with him but dreaming of you

The almost-affair. My only regret is saying no.

I close my eyes as you stare into mine
I know if I look, i’ll fall this time
When our hands begin touch,
I fear the tension would be too much
I feel my heart begin to race
As I prepare to fight your tactless embrace
But instead our hands begin to explore
With your safe arms around me, I care no more.


I lie on your chest and feel your heart 
And think of the times you’ve torn me apart
But every time I come running back
Because I long to give the love that you lack
My head feels wrong but my heart feels right 
It shouldn’t be you that I think of at night


I have a love that’s safer than your's
but I still need you with such remorse
The feel of your touch, the sound of your voice,
the smell of your skin, I hate this choice.
His love doesn't touch me the way that you do
I’m dancing with him but dreaming of you.

I love this. What a tug at emotion, loving and being tempted by two people.
