brightly wound

when open my eyes, i'm still taken by surprise. i hold your face in my hands, stare into your eyes, melt into your kiss and fall away in your embrace. my heart goes thump, thump, thump...the only thing that reminds me that i'm still alive. i feel your breath on my neck and bury my face deeper in your chest. if only i had forever to love you, to lay here and love you. because if i did, that is all i would do.

but i do not. so for now, i keep you close, breathing in your smell and absorbing your heat. your skin on mine feels brilliant, almost otherworldly, and i press my lips against yours, ever so softly, and smile against the kiss as i feel your chest rumble with a chuckle. my hands bring you closer, ignoring the danger of being caught. i am yours, and you are mine.

but we do not have forever.
