Be Mine

Inside my chest a staccato beat, the rhythm thumping in time with yours
Eyes shining like the brightest diamonds,
shimmering in the night sky

Never had I felt so complete, content
as I do when my fingers rest
Entangled in yours, entwined with mine,
bodies thrum in perfect harmony

Blue-black waves stretch as far,
farther than even our eyes can see
Dark waves slamming against the reef,
the waters churning as our desire flares

Flaming emotions, our lips meet in a kiss;
stuttering, skipping occurs inside of us
The music of bliss swells within us,
bodies lowering to the blanket in the spray

The growing sunlight dances upon our bodies,
lost in their own dance of warm and tenderness
We listen to the surf as I curl against you,
my lips curve in a smile as your fingers slip
across my skin and I murmur
into the gleaming morning light…

“Be mine always, my Valentine.”
