I wasn't sure we were ready for this,
Meeting friends.
Stepping out into the cold night,
Nervous but excited
Holding hands, touching,
Sharing kisses outside in the wind.
You warmed me with your arms.
Getting home we talked all night long,
Bitter truths.
Striding into the discomfort of reality,
Delicate but weighted
Pained face, darkened eyes.
I wanted to enclose you in my heart.
You warmed me with all of you.
We kissed and cuddled, it had changed,
Grasping you.
You said you wanted me as yours,
Sleepy but delighted
The next day I wouldn’t let you get up.
I loved the feeling of moving past lust.
We were warmed in our blanket of security and trust.

This was an interesting piece of poetry. I really liked the first stanza the most. The way you set it up and the words you used really captures the attention of the reader intstantaneously, it is awesome. The title of this sounds a bit off topic, but this was a great piece of poetry none-the-less! Great job, continue writing.
