Shall We?

Draw me near and cheer me
Grace me with your smile
Let a veil encircle ‘round
Concealing us, a while

Let me lean against you
Strong and warm and there
Radiating sureness
Shielded from life’s glare

And as your chest enfolds me
Comfort’s warmth does rise
Catching at the core of me
Lighting in your eyes

A shifting of emotion
Glints through this tender calm
Convergently occurring
As you hold me in your arms

Shall we disrupt this beauty?
Yielding to desire?
Can we preserve the sweetness
Still tending to our fire?
