Is It?
 

is it in what you do or in what you say
or is it your presence as you pass my way?
is it the place or the way of life
or is it the beauty when you are in my sight?

is it your words or is it your voice
or is it your laughter that kills this noise?
is it time or is it the moment
or is it being with you that makes me endure any torment?

is it when you are close or is it when you are near
or is it the thought of you that makes me face this fear?
is it a wish or is it hope
or is it the answer that can never be a "nope"?

is it just the face or is it the face with a smile
or is it it's truth that makes living worthwhile?
is it the look or is it the glance
or is it what you see in me that makes up my plans?

is in when you eyes flutter
or perhaps the way you move your lips
or is it just something about you that makes me play for keeps?
is it when your talking or is it when your touching me
or is it simply you that makes me free?

what it really is
i might never know
why it is
you might never show
is it you, or is it me
Or is it what you're really trying to tell me?

tell me.
