I shut my eyes and you're not there, the world disappears

And I have control

I open them up again and my pulse accelerates

And my blood runs cold

You won't return my gaze, you won't acknowledge my stare

I'm pleading silently, please remember me

You, enshrined

You on fire, filling my mind

With smoke and flame

You unknown, only your name

And a near forgotten, hasty touch of lips

Of fingertips

And the seeds are sown

I close my eyes and hold my breath and pray for the ground

To swallow me whole

I stand completely still while desire and fear

Battle for my soul

I don't have anything I wouldn't give away

To draw you into me, possess you completely

You enshrined

You on fire, filling my mind

With smoke and flame

You unknown, only your name

And a near forgotten, hasty touch of lips

Of fingertips

And the seeds are sown

You, sublime

You outside of space and time

Are standing there

You untouched and unaware

That someone so close is burning in your name

A secret flame

And wanting you so much

I think I must be mad, I cannot concentrate

On anything but you, there's nothing I can do

You enshrined

You on fire, filling my mind

With smoke and flame

You unknown, only your name

And a near forgotten, hasty touch of lips

Of fingertips

And the seeds are sown
