Burning For You Poem by Natasa To

Burning for You

There is something about you
that reaches beneath my skin—
something I cannot explain,
only feel.

Maybe it's the way your eyes meet mine,
as if you already know
every secret my heart is trying to hide.
Maybe it's your brilliant mind,
the way your thoughts pull me in
until I forget everything else around me.

Or maybe it's your laughter—
that irresistible sound
that makes me want to be closer,
to steal another smile,
another moment,
another piece of you.

You awaken something in me
that I never knew was waiting.
A hunger for your presence,
a longing for your touch,
a need to feel close enough
that the rest of the world disappears.

I want the quiet moments with you,
when words aren't necessary.
I want the stolen glances,
the lingering embraces,
the electricity between us
when neither of us wants to let go.

I want to know every side of you—
your brilliant thoughts,
your ridiculous jokes,
your deepest fears,
your wildest dreams.

And I want you to know
that beneath all my laughter and smiles,
there is a heart that burns for you.

You are not simply someone I love.

You are the person
who makes my heart beat harder,
my soul feel alive,
and my whole world feel more beautiful.

If loving you is a fire,
then let me burn.

Because I'd rather spend forever
burning beside you
than live one moment
without this love.
