Always

Intrigued, yet not scared away
Fascinated, yet never going to tell
Entangled, intertwined, removed
We play a game
A chase and then...

You stare into me with eyes that could cut stone
With a fire that burns so bright, yet is always fearful of going out
A passion is unfolding, unsure
So careful you were at first, yet rough with your touch
So unguarded you became, gentle
You broke something down, something I will never regain
I stand before you as a new woman, whole but hesitant
It is that which makes this real

Your hand reaches my face after what seems like an eternity
Your eyes bore into my soul, aching, longing
You carry me, not to the bedroom, but some far away place
Somewhere we are free, uninhibited, unleashed
Nothing matters here and we can just be
I let you undress my heart, uncover my wounds
Your hands never leave my body as I long for you to hold me
To pull me in
Into that soft and warm place
The place where I am healed and whole again
Reborn and without scars
You hand searches
Finding everything you need
Somehow we are there again
I feel your breath, like a sweet autumn breeze
Fresh and new, yet old and familiar
You whisper words I have only imagined
More than anything I could dream of
From you they are breathtaking
I feel you stronger now
Ready to be with me
To take me
Hearts pound
Noise rushes in my ears
Able to be in the warmth of each other
Inside of me you fit
I am whole and all is calm
Blood rushes and hands roam
Until finally we are there
In this moment we are one
There is nothing
The world is non-existent
There are no words and yet we say so much
Like a fire that is quelled by the sweetest of rains
We are there
In that moment
Free
We fall apart in gasps
Unable to describe the all to vivid feel
This is what is to be
Everything
Always
