Warm under the rain

I had dreaded that day I'll be spending with you and her
Because it makes me feel like a third one to an intimate party
But surprisingly, you looked into my eyes as you talk
And you always end up walking right next to me as we walk
She was quiet and bothered and we were given
A chance to laugh and share and be ourselves.
It made me feel that same warmth that you have.

To sit so closely to you is something alien to me
It pierces my skin as I run away to safer, colder places
Because it melts me to look into your eyes as we speak
As you lay your heart and bare your soul
Penetrate my wall and warm up my anxious heart
It's too much, it's too obvious. You leave me breathless
Dissolving my masks, and pricking my lies
You have such a potent power - to uncover who I really am
Exposing me naked, but not with a shiver
But a welcoming, glowing warmth

As I laugh and sit closely to you, I wished this would last
That it would not be those kinds of friendships that fade,
Wither, grow cold and disappear.
I wanted to bask under your own personal sunshine
And stay there
Dreading to go back into that cold, empty room
Where I am all alone, freezing
