loved you then love you now

I loved you then and I love you now
I wanted you then and I want you now

When your arm brushes against mine
All I think about is being embraced
=in your strong arms
And feeling your warm lips upon my neck

When your eyes meet mine
I cannot breathe
Then you smile
And my whole body shivers

You tease me
I can't respond

You are my future
You've always been
You always will

I loved you then and I love you now

I am vulnerable
I am weak
Your so strong
Your so collected

I have nothing left
Just a hope
That maybe you'll mean it when I see you smile
And maybe
Just maybe you will take my hand
Draw me in close
Grab me by the chin
Ignore me as I shake and try to push you away
And hopefully you will just kiss me

You are my future
Youâ??ve always been
You always will

the biggest lie. nobody is your future. you are not your future yourself. generally we keep on telling lies as Plato told us centuries ago that we are social man. we are born alone, pass away alone. but let us flounder in these lies. we have to indeed! because there is no alternative otherwise.

I like that you put your feelings "out there", soft and vulnerable. I like the way this is put together.

A little typo: "=in your"

Just a suggestion, I would try not to start lines with And. I do it too, but it usually seems to chop up the flow of a poem in most cases. It seems to do that here: "And my whole body shivers"

Typo: Your so strong
Your so collected

Both should be "you're"

Awesome lines: Draw me in close
Grab me by the chin
Ignore me as I shake and try to push you away
And hopefully you will just kiss me

The only thing I would suggest on that line, is once again the last line starting with "and". It actually seems to have a more powerful ending with "Hopefully you will just kiss me."

Awesome read though all around. I really enjoyed it!
