Funny

Funny how you bring up your love for another 
every time i get close to you
not just physically close, 
for you can get away, walk away
but close in words
hot-and-sensitive
inside your brain 
inside your thoughts
funny how you want it 
just as much as i do, yet...
are afraid 
as am i
Our conversations are all
double dealing
we sneak the truth through
jokes and soft whispers
yet through it all i wonder when i 
will get the guts to kiss you
to stand up close enough
to hear your heart beat
look into those, oh so gorgeous 
and enchanting eyes
be able to trust my feelings 
and connect your lips with mine
while caressing every curve that your body makes
funny thing is,
every time i get close,
you draw nearer to another...
