It’s scary
Feeling this much for one person
Putting their happiness before your own
Delighting in every smile and tinkle of laughter
You frighten me
That you are the one – forever and ever
What if you don’t love me back?
Or don’t treat me right?
You comfort me
Hearing your soothing voice in my ear
Your arm around my waist
Your reassuring smile
You soothe me
Feeling you lips on my skin
Your breath on my neck
Hearing your heart beating in your chest
You thrill me
To have your body pressed up against mine
To feel your need of wanting me
And stay up late into the night
You complete me
Having you there by my side
Our conversations and laughter
Your soul mixed up with mine
