not just words

I see you there
looking mildly interested
but keeping your dstance
come closer
please
I'm not just words
I need you
I need you to reach out
touch me
trace every letter
line and curve
ummm, nice
your hands are warm, soft
I love you ya' know
and I realize that sometimes when you look at me
you only see hard lines and angles
but touch me please
feel the curved symmetry of my O
let your finger plunge down my V
Oh God, that gives me shivers every time
I really do love you ya' know
come closer, give me a chance to prove it
I'm not just words
and letters
come closer
touch me
Aahhhhh
