Your fingers in the spaces of my ribcage,

Pull me in closer; spine to chest.

The world dissolves around the edges. 

My heart races beneath my breast.

Your voice – low and passioned in my ear.

I follow all of your direction.

My breathe catches, just a little – 

You have my body’s full attention.

You anchor me with steady pressure,

Your heat – the eye of my storm. 

In these moments, you have no walls – 

I feel you fully against my form.

Time slows down around us – 

Our pulses slow, we breathe in deep. 

You kiss me gently, neck then shoulder.

Alive in this dream ‘til we fall asleep.
