Leave a Mark or Don't Touch Me at All

I awoke in a forest  
fog whispered through the trees  
too thick to cut through  
I brushed off the leaves  

I tried to guess what time it was  
it felt like dusk,  
but my heart shouted "dawn!"  
So I watched the sun to see  
        where  
          she  
           went  
 
She hung in the sky  
just out of my reach  
it felt like a minute  
it felt like a week  
 
Static and cold  
while showing me warmth  
                            "i don't believe you"  
she retorts, "you don't need to"  
 
It felt like nothing  
and that's what burned
