An unexpected smile

What I would give just to feel something.
I remember your touch.
I should have let myself cry.
Touch me again and I'll cry this time.
I don't care who's looking.

How can I be so numb within your embrace?
Unresponsive to your whispers of I love you?
I know you're shouting, but I can't move.

We use to move mountains together, but today I hear the rocks cry out.
Even the longest journey ends in a circle.
Maybe that's why I always come back to fear.
It leaves so much unsaid.
So much undone.

As the clouds loom a smile strikes like lightning.
Strange how deeply cuts the stranger.
Something connects and there's a stir within this empty shell.
Something's missing.
It sticks with me and lingers.
You stick with me and linger.
She sticks with me and lingers.

I wonder if we'll meet again.
It gives me hope and makes me feel foolish, but those are feelings.
She made me feel again and that made the moment precious.
Maybe I'll dance again someday.
Maybe someday we won't be strangers.
Maybe we never were.
Maybe you'll touch me and I'll cry this time.
I don't care who's looking.
