Light Years
by: Berlin Flores
your eyes reveal a million truths,
truths that you've always tried to keep from me
but your lips betray you--
and your kisses tell who you really are,
or what you really feel.
you've managed to build a fortress between us,
but it only takes my embrace to shatter that divide.
and, no matter how you try to seek sanctuary in the confines of your room,
it always only take one knowing stare,
one passionate kiss,
one gentle touch at your delicate nakedness
to pull you out of your self-exile
and make you realize,
finally,
that home is not light years away
but right beside me,
right beside me.
