Just Once

I want to TALK to you just once
for your voice takes me to a new world
I shall not say and go on listening you
no matter you talk of hate or love.

I want to SEE you just once
for the beats go high at your first glance 
The depth of your eyes explores all seas 
and the glow of your face gives me a new charm.

I want to TOUCH you just once
for the feel of your presence maddens my heart
keep your fingers over my hand 
and take me where noone except us lasts.

I want to HUG you just once
for in your arms I find the worth of my life 
as if the drops of rain had blossomed a desert 
or my heart has forgotten to beat for a while.

I have nothing to pray but JUST ONE
may life end here in this moment
and I die in your arms
'coz being so close to you
how will we live apart?
