sweat beading from a nervous forehead
no longer can I do you wrong
I can do no harm
I know how to make you smile
I know how to make you laugh
and holding you allows me the first
talking permits the second
I always hold on for just that one more
Can I hold you again
Kiss you in secret
behind closed doors
in corners out of sight
not out of fright
only the importance of a well kept secret
and how I long for you between those shared moments
monumental is a fine descriptor of the feelings kept at bay
early morning kisses to keep until noon
and again until dusk
in this I can trust though
an embrace I remember my entire day
now we've had less than a week together in the last four
it makes our moments seem like so much more
exploding like stars gone super nova
my mind is blinded by your hold
all else looses importance
I hope to dream of you in a canoe
under stary skies and sun filled days spotted with clouds
A light breeze to softly caress as we paddle into more dreams
a tent on a cliffs edge catching both the setting and rise of a brilliant sun
mesh overhead for a starry nights sleep
with you in my arms
only the sounds of the wild to compliment
I could never wish a better soundtrack
a more perfect place
How I want to be with you now
in a few short days to the East coast we will fly
two and two on a journey to new lands
of whales and coastlines
red beaches and green gables
I dream of holding you in hope that I will be in rem when I awake
and hold true to powerful thoughts in my head
you felt embrace to keep me four days
I await your stories
here in this place
my home for now
so happily shared
