Love: Be With You Always!!

When you wrap me in your arms I feel safe, happy and secure… such warmth diminishes all problems, MY LOVE!!

You put your arms around me, I close my eyes, breath deeply and my heart is like an old radiator humming to life again. I can feel the dust blowing away in the warm air and I feel a pulse-pounding through every cell in my body.

My mind rushing ten thousand miles an hour, imaging streets where we will dance by the light of the moon, alleyways where we’ll run like children holding hands, restaurants where you’ll order expensive dishes and we’ll share the same fork, beaches where we’ll dip our toes and splash the saltwater onto our sun-kissed skin. A future, unburdened, unbound.

Desperately reaching for you, to put my mouth on yours, to kiss my every dream onto your lips until we breathe the same desires, until all the time and space is no longer lost between us. Until we are one.

To the earth beneath my feet, to the stars dancing across the night sky and yet are still connected in our shared breath, our hands, our laughter filling the air. I breathe and let myself relax, let myself lean into you. Without fear.

You are not perfect, but you carry yourself with strength and intelligence. I don’t have to be afraid. You stand next to me, beside me. We share the weight of the world on our shoulders, and when I falter, you don’t stand back. You let me be strong, but not strong enough so that I don’t need you. You let me dance and run and taste freedom on my tongue, but you never leave my side. You’re free too, and hand in hand we spin.

You put your arms around me and I am finally loved how I need to be loved.
