Excellence Award in the 'Read Write Repeat 2015' competition
Your arms wrapped tightly round my waist,
My arms twined loosely round your neck,
Foreheads pressed together,
Our breath intermingles.
We sway side to side,
Warm silence enveloping us,
A motion to enjoy,
A feeling to explore,
A moment to repeat,
The future dreamed of but ultimately unknown.
We sway side to side,
Your hands clutch my waist,
My fingers run through your hair,
Foreheads pressed together,
Our breathe intermingles.
Closer.
