—————————————————————

how did we get here?
so quickly, so fast.

one second,
i reached my arms up to you,
and asked you to spin me around.
it made me feel like i could fly.

now, i feel like i'm flying
but in a different way.
it's a spiritual release,
a freedom that laces
the fibers of my heart.

i blinked
and suddenly i was yours.

i wouldn't want it any other way.
you give me so much joy.

you're the first thing that comes to mind
when i start my day.
you're the last thing to leave my mind
before i slip into slumber.

i feel so precious
when i'm held between your hands.
you inspect my face,
as if checking the legitimacy of a jewel.

the kisses you leave on my forehead
reverberate throughout my body,
giving color to my cheeks
and painting a smile across my face.

i hold you tight,
afraid that you may slip away.

i've never wanted a constant in my life.
i've always thought people and events
to be fleeting.

but the way your arms wrap around me,
the way your body envelops me completely,
the way my mind completely clears
when i'm holding your hand...

it makes me want a forever.
