I Want To Know You

Author's note: I sometimes write pieces that sort of take a song lyrics format. I wrote this not long after I started watching Batman Of The Future.  It was written after my thinking on what it would be like to be the girl who is in love with Batman, it's sort of got some links to what Max's feelings are in my fic 'Identity'.  I remember talking to a friend about mysterious guys and how they can draw women to them and just make you want to know more about them.  I wanted this to conjure up a dream like feeling of this guy you see but can't get close enough to.  I see Batman that way. I'm sure it's what made Bruce attractive in the old days.  I imagine these words to slow edgy rock music. It's a short piece I'm submitting while I'm sorting out my fic.  Thanks to my reviewers as always - gambit

If only I was closer, right beneath your skin,

Maybe I'd know better, the person deep within.

You wear a mask so well, how can I know you?

The feelings lie hidden, I want to know your truth.

A smile can hide so much, do you long for someone's touch?

You don't have to be alone.

The sweetest mystery, secrets that you keep,

Do you want someone to know? Cause I want to know.

In your darkest dreams, emotions so deep,

Do you want someone to know? Cause I want to know.

A dark knight in armour, hiding out of sight,

Enclosed in your prison, talking to the night.

Cloaked in an enigma, won't let down your guard,

Won't disclose the passion you have inside your heart.

A smile can hide so much, do you long for someone's touch?

You don't have to be alone.

Because I want to know you

So quiet but moving, essence so unique.

Magnetic alluring, in your presence I am weak.

A look that is honest, cutting to the core.

A hint of what is in there, alluding to more.

A smile can hide so much, but I long for your touch.

You don't have to be alone.

The sweetest mystery, secrets that you keep,

Do you want someone to know? Cause I want to know.

In your darkest dreams, emotions so deep,

Do you want someone to know? Cause I want to know.

I want to know you.
