The Gentlest Caress

The wind blows tender,

Leaves rustle in it's wake,

But though I know

That's not all it takes.

My heart expands,

Warmth fuels my veins

As my gaze rests upon your face

And you take me in your hands.

Light fills my soul,

A smile graces my lips

As I feel your heartbeat

Race at what it beholds.

Your lips touch mine,

The gentlest caress

Which steals my breath

And empties my mind.

Our bodies join

Melding together

And it feels as if

We've been waiting forever.

I don't know where you end

Or where I begin,

But I do know

That on you I depend.

You are my Air,

You are my Light,

You are my Life,

To which none shall ever compare.
