Anticipation's Burning Me

Pacing down the hallway. Breathe heavy on my tongue. Every step in

nature's silence. Is a song I can't outrun. Just a match head in a

shadow. Waiting for your sign. Echo in the silence.

I keep chasing down the light. Anticipation's burning me. Softly, deeply,

patiently. You're the ghost behind the door I can't ignore. Anticipation's burning me.

Like a secret on repeat. Your name's a whisper on floorboards. Turning through my

head. Every moment feels like longing. For a touch I

haven't met. I'm a passenger in circles. Tracing figures in the sheets.
