"Frozen Footsteps"

Waiting upon the edge

Here in a moment frozen

Holding still

Where time stops

Silence screams

Seconds tick by slowly, almost in reverse

Eternity comes and goes

Tears are afraid to fall

But linger none the less

Hiding close by

Just in case they are needed

Nerves fray

Every heartbeat is intimately known

Because every feeling, emotion, and movement here after is raw

Cut deep to the core

Changing everything that now lies before every footstep forward.

"In Love"

Tenderly sweet and smooth

And nothing between us but our skin

Moments link to memories

My heartbeat matches yours

Fingertips leave fingerprints in soft places touched

The smell of warmth melts me smooth

And the taste of your kiss lingers upon my lips

Time slows and speeds by all in the same second

Hours unfold

Weaving a tapestry of a new history made

Word for word

Line by line

And page after page

Anchored by a fond growing connection

I finally allow myself to slip completely

And whole heartedly...

In love with you.

"Here Beside Me"

Intense warmth radiates from your tender skin

As my fingertips glide across your bare chest

Fingers entwine...

Arms link and embrace

The sound of your beating heart soothes me

You snuggle your chin deep at the base of my neck

Intense shivers excite every nerve upon my spin

I smile bright...

My breath matches yours

In this position I am safe

Its a place that I have longed to be for most of my life

All because I have you

Here beside me.

"Every Part Unique"

No

I will not be sorry for this day

Nor will I be sorry for any day before or after this moment

I do not regret the choices that I have made for me

I am simply trying my best to live my life

My actions are my own

I owe no debt

So please, stop trying to create one for me

Time can be the best illusion

One blink and it all can be gone

If you forever hold out

Then a lifetime will be spent waiting

I bear my own making

My faults and mistakes are my imperfections

Which I own

Making me every part unique.

"Memory Everlasting"

Its crazy just how much stock we can put into a feeling

The weight of emotions...

And the times passed...

Awaiting with baited breath of eagerness

Hope can always be rekindled

From the tiniest spark

Or even from nothing in the dark

We are that example of a fresh new chance taken

You and I

Here...

Just as we are

Learning the curves of each others lives

We mark out our beginning

Growing together with hands and fingers entwined

With all of the stars I gaze upon

And the numerous moments counted that have passed

Add together until my mind loses track

Because we are building up memories upon the thousands each and every day

And a day in the life of a memory can be everlasting.

"Simply So"

I seem to struggle with the simple words of gratitude

Because to me, in this very moment

Thank you does not seem to be enough

Slowly you have begun to open the doors of your life and allow me in

Hand in hand we lead one another along

I have become very fond of having you in my life

You have become a source of deep and rich happiness

As we begin this adventure with one another upon the paths of our lives

I smile deep within my being at the knowing that I have become a source of happiness for you too

Making my senses crave more of everything that is us together

So at the end of the day when all words are spoken

I am simply left once again with thank you

For the chance taken...

With your faith and choice in me

Fingers entwine

And smiles shine ever so bright.

"Shine Bright"

Hand in hand a new

A connection is made

Feelings begin free and easy

A simple flow of movements

Friendship grows

And eagerness pursues

You inspire me...

Eyes of sparkle blue

And a smile that shines light

Making the sun so envious, because it cannot shine that bright.
