All Along

Remember

the way he feels

against your skin


Remember

the way he looked at you

before you knew you were in love


Remember your first touch

that was equally playful

as intimate


Love wasn't what you were expecting

when he came home to your heart


Once that four letter word was spoken

you expected a shock or a chill

but when neither came

you realized

This had been love all along


Whether it be felt

or spoken.
