gaze

I don't know anymore
What is ok
What is permissible
I keep a distance
My immediate response
is visceral
I can't help it
I am lost
I can't function
I'd stare
but to gaze
is much softer
you are too beautiful
for me to be subtle
I remain
confused
I apologize
I get lost
in your eyes
watching you
is ecstasy
Kissing you
would be
some sort of
dream
to be close to you
would be
something like
heavenly
but my thoughts
and feelings
aren't really
that saintly
