you are a good place

I breathe in the scent of you
and soak in your warmth
as we lay side by side,
intertwining,
baring ourselves to each other
and relishing the smooth, warm skin contact.
this is paradise, heaven, every good thing,
and I just want to let out what I'm thinking:
I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
