Feathery pillows and tender arms caress our heads Every possible inch of our bodies gently affix From the base of skull to the tips of toes Your every breath reverberates in my own My every snuggle echoes in your skin
This particular throe of passion looks infinitely still Yet our strings constantly vibrate to sing praises As if our universe is made up of a sleepy string quartet Playing a sonata, melting us together Swells of music and breath in perfect time
A sweet, loving kiss to complete one movement and mark the next
Rolling into your rib cage I am welcomed by your bones Embracing the confounding curiosity that binds us We wonder around each other like stargazers lost in the sky Still, finitely beating hearts, broken by our own music
