elapsed time

I'm counting down the hours
till i get to be next to you
so close to you and it won't be questioned...

until you're touching me -
holding me underneath your hands
so close i can feel your breath

i'm counting down the moments until
elation is the needle in my arm
the needle in my arm by your hand
counting down time until ...
