When you are near.

When you are near,
I feel a sense of comfort.
Knowing that you are still safe,
That you are still within reach.

When you are near,
I feel the quickening of my pulse.
Anxious about seeing you again,
Yet too shy to speak up.

When you are near,
I feel the presence of another.
Taking over me, giving you the cold smile,
Yet that was never meant to be.

When you are near,
I feel Past's lightest touch.
Bringing back sweet memories,
That we once created with our dreams.

When you are near,
I feel the tears of sadness.
As the dreams we once shared,
Will never come true again.
