Ear pressed to chest
listening
heartbeat consuming
in moments known as “now”
all fades to dim
but the light of this space
the light of eyes
shining brightly with love
moved
breathing you in
sweet caress of hands lost in skin
in moments of you and me
drifting to dreams
nestled safe in arms
love reminding me that we are one
union of souls in covenant
forever combined
forever committed
forever one
I’ll never turn away
