Your lips press hard.
You take and you give.
As candlelight fades around us.
And the darkness forgives.
I know you live.

Your hands caress.
Your touch makes me ache.
As we lay entwined on cool sheets.
I think my soul could break.
I know you’re awake.

You hold me close.
I’m wrapped in your heat.
I’m intoxicated by your scent.
As our bodies meet.
I know your heartbeats.

Then you make me feel you.
I’ve lost control of my pride.
Slick bodies drenched in sweat.
Every defense has died.
I feel you inside.

I watch your face.
Blinded by the tears in my eyes.
Together we are one.
I no longer want to die.
Just because I have this chance…
To see myself in your eyes.
This first time.
