YURI DURAAN - 4 am

In the early hours
I whisper my secrets to you
my lips against your temples

You lay with your eyes closed
to my desires
You dont's answer...
your only response your
breathing in the dark

This is how you protect yourself
against my revelations of love
so that you don't have to give
what you cannot...

and I continue whispering
my lips against your temples
against your heart
against
nothing
