Deep breath in,
Exhale slowly…
I sink into your arms,
Cheek cushioned on your shoulder.
Flesh against flesh,
We enfold each other
Like twin candles, both aflame,
Melting, merging, becoming one.
You cradle my head, your touch
Speaking of care and compassion,
The softest kiss
Fills me with joy.
Thoughts drift in blissful nothingness,
A sea of love that has no shore.
Time dissolves,
The physical losing meaning.
Only you and I exist:
Two floating souls.
I taste your skin with every breath,
Feel your heart syncopate with mine.
Flesh pulses beneath fingertips
And, pulling you closer, I whisper softly,
I love you, always.
