Image for the poem tender

tender

 
linger on the winds
inside my soul I faint
tarry with me if you please
I can't shake the feeling

my lilt is quietly singing to you
tender to the touch
awkward in the feeling
I pull away

gentle lover don't touch me there
I can't return your affection
I have an affliction
getting too close makes me nervous

I sigh within
we've tried before
in dreams we already are
in reality, we don't quite fit

I can't succumb, I can't let go
hold me close in your heart
pressed in my pages
there is a place for us
secure in the notion
happy in the feeling

are you really willing?
