When I opened the door
the air fell between us.
I felt your hand linger,
wander to the small of my back.
Hours melted as I buried
my head into your heart,
tucked my skin into your ribs,
my love into your arms
and listened to your heartbeat;
it told me secrets I promised to keep,
told me stories of kings and queens,
of your wildest dreams
as it kept time with hope
hidden in my eyes,
with magic at your fingertips
as they closed over mine,
with the patience of our kiss
surrendering our souls
to long awaited bliss.
