I Need To Feel A Closerness

I need to feel from you,
A closerness.
Something much more uninhibited.
Although an affection I suspect.
But not close enough to detect,
With effect.

I want to be assured,
That what we have can endure.
I don't wish to be the one to guess,
If what I feel from you is real.
I want to know that when we caress,
Your mind is on me.
And not on someone else,
One day you will confess.

From you I need to feel,
A closerness.
Something much more uninhibited.
Although an affection I suspect.
But not close enough to detect,
With effect,
Yet.

But hopefully comes,
With only me without question...
To direct it as addressed.
