Fight For You: Beating Heart

You wake from your slumber,

Once tired eyes become anew,

Hazel muddy brown like the earth that surrounds us,

I lay on my stomach just enjoying the view,

My mind at ease,

Just thinking of you,

You place your hand upon my cheek,

Caressing it softly looking into my ocean-blue eyes,

Why is it you stare so much at me?

Are you trying to keep a photographic memory, my love?

I shake my head giggling under my breath,

I pull back knowing I am found out,

You do that little stern smile that I love,

Always a jokester but also very serious at times,

Crawling out of our bed you keep your eyes glued on me,

I over to the table and turned on the radio,

Waiting until I find the right station I bob my head,

Spinning around I finally find that hidden station,

Dancing to the music across the cream cheese-colored carpeting,

I grab your hands trying to pull you from our bed,

You finally arise pulling me close to the sternness of your chest,

Hips moving from side to side in motion,

I lock my hands around the back of your neck,

Do you feel everything I feel,

Do these moments we share give you that high,

Not wanting ever to get down from it,

I feel your breath against the nape of my neck,

You spin me around cupping my face tenderly in your hands,

I childishly brush my nose up against yours,

Smiling back at me I can't help but flush,

Kissing me softly I can feel your breath echoing with that mine,

My heart beats along with yours,

In tune with one another,

Singing a song only we can hear,

Yet remains deaf to those who cannot see with heart,

Eyes betraying their very own existence,

Here we are together in this very moment in time,

I want to make the best of what we have,

Never take our love for granted,

Pull back from me only to pick me up into your arms,

Spinning me around in a circle,

One day we'll make more memories to never be forgotten,

Maybe a few words proclaiming undying love,

Asking for a hand to spend a lifetime with,

Maybe in a cry and screams, new life is born,

Another miracle created to bring change to a world in need of it,

So much life with maybes that can ultimately be etched in stone,

Taking a breath of one breath into that of your own,

As if saying that you feel the love you deserve,

In these dreams, I see us as one,

One army against those who wish to take us down,

Two beating hearts ready to take on the darkness,

Fighting to survive day by day,

In your eyes, I see the possibilities,

Of a happily ever after,

I take your hand placing it over my heart,

Do you feel my beating heart?

Do you hear my beating heart?

Beating for you,

My sun and everlasting stars.
