you


I look but do i see
I touch but do i feel
I listen but do i hear
My sense are dulled
when you are near

I eat but cannot taste
I drink but cannot swallow
I float but cannot fly
These things happen
when you walk by

I love but am i loved
I cared but am i cared for
I hold but am i held
All this is felt
when you are here
