That which I do not know

Seeing you and touching that which I do not know
Imagination does you no rightful claim
I am casual and reserved
I fear you can see right through the false presentation
You are a wonder of a woman
Steer me to your unknown paths

Seeing you and wanting that which I do not know
Caramel kisses and lips like peaches in drought
I am savoring your mouth
I hide my timid nature behind a smile
Your voice beckons me to the very inch away from your skin
Take a trip around the stars with me

Seeing you and losing that which I do not know
Are my sweet nothings engaging to you at all
I fumble for clever verse to excuse my silence
I sense that you are looking away
You never needed what I had to give
Can I come to visit again in your song
