Lovely little poem found in Shilpa's AIM profile:

"just you and me
on this island of hope
a breath between us could be miles
let me surround you
my sea to your shore
let me be the calm you seek
oh and every time I'm close to you
there's too much I can't say
and you just walk away
and I forgot
to tell you
I love you
and the night's
too long
and cold here
without you
I grieve in my condition
for I cannot find the strength to say I need you so"

A little change never hurts:

"just you and me
on this island of despair
a furtive glance between us could be miles
let me escape you
my boat to your sea
let me be the prey you seek
oh and every time I'm close to you
there's too much I can't say
because I have to run away
and I forgot
to tell you
I hate you
and the night's
too long
and cold here
with you
I revel in my condition
for I can find the strength to say I don't need you so"
