A lyrical declaration of love.
My ground stands firm. The world may waver all around us. I feel the bark of our existence beneath my fingertips. The leaves rustle in the wind. It is a soft whisper that ceaselessly shapes your name.
Without you the world shrinks. The days turn gray. A haze in which all colors have been wiped away. No gold upon your shoulders in the morning sun. No warm glow of your skin in the candlelight. I wake in a bed that feels too vast. The sheets are cold and smooth where you belong. I search for your scent on the pillow. It fades like mist before the sun. The nights stretch out like endless rivers. I hear only the ticking of the clock and the rain against the glass. Without your laughter the silence stays heavy and hollow. The missing tastes bitter on my tongue.
But the silence is not there. You are here.
Hold me close. Let your hands wander over my skin. Warm. Rough. A gentle pressure that makes every pore tingle. A soft electric current runs through my body. Your heartbeat thunders against mine. It is a drum in the depths of the forest. Your breath brushes along my neck. I smell coffee and pine. In this moment everything melts together. Salty lips. Your body nestles against mine. Soft. Strong. We are entwined. Breath after breath. Dream after dream. Our sighs become one in the dark.
Stay who you are. Change nothing. I see the small wrinkle between your eyebrows when you think deeply. I smell your skin after a long day. Sweat, soap, and earth. Freshly plowed soil after the rain. Your voice rumbles like distant thunder when you speak to me. It is my only foundation. I have been in love before, but this is different. This is the wave that lifts me and holds me safe. Nothing can break this.
Our dreams dance ahead of us like fireflies in the twilight. They point the way to places only we dare to go together. You see it in my gaze. You feel it on your skin. I ask only for you. Pure. Raw. Real.
Break down my world. Build it anew. The path is bumpy. Sharp stones press into our soles. Mud sucks at our ankles. But our love is the star that guides us. Cold and silver upon our faces. Unwavering in the sky. When your shoulders slump beneath a burden I feel in your muscles, I am there. When your eyes burn and I taste the salt on my thumb, I am there. When your laughter fills the air like an explosion of flowers, I am there.
Come to me. Now. We stand on the hill that only we know. The wind blows through your hair. Cool and salty. Wild thyme scents beneath our bare feet. The horizon is golden-pink in the last light. The sun casts a glow across your face. Shadows dance in the hollows of your neck.
Here is where we belong. I carry what is too heavy. My hands folded around yours. In every breath. In every silence. In every kiss that tastes of eternity.
Forever. And even longer.
