Why do you intrigue me so?
It seems forbidden,
considering how far you are away...
But whenever I think about it, it's so damned
perfect.
Perfect.
And it could be so very
perfect.
Perfect.
If I think about how technology works
then you're barely a footstep away...
But that footstep is a footstep too much.
Any space between you and I at all
is a crime.
Against nature, against God and against any other power,
it's a crime.
I just want to hold you close
and feel your breath
and feel your skin under mine
and make you a part of me forever.
So we'd be the same,
you and I.
And I'd only be happy
so you felt no pain of mine, and so I would conquer your hurt.
and I'd only be true
so you'd feel no darkness.
and I'd only be proud
so you felt no guilt.
You'd think knowing that you're there...
you'd think having the contact I have with you
would be a great thing...
And I guess it is,
but it's always such a tease too.
It's always a tease
that I can't have
all
of you. I get a whiff of perfume
or a shimmer of a smile
which puts a deep malcontent into my chest
because I ache without you.
You know I do, you know I do.
Maybe now you believe it...
Maybe you don't...
Either way it doesn't make how it feels any less real
or any less

painful.

‘Looks like freedom but it feels like death,
it's something in between I guess...' - Leonard Cohen
