I want to wrap your hand in mine ...
fingers entwined.
I want to press my lips to yours...
love not confined.
*
I want to hear you whisper ...
emotions expressed.
I want to shiver from your touch ...
desires confessed.
*
I want to lay in your arms ...
comfort in heat.
I want to sleep against you ...
energies deplete.
*
I want to spend my life with you...
every day and night
I want to share in everything ...
all the fun and fright.
*
So take my hand,
hold it tight ,
never let it go.
Like hourglass sand
and fading moonlight
time never passes slow.

'20/20'
"Do It Again" the track that would ultimately open the Beach Boys final album on Capitol Records which was released on February 10th 1969 had originally been released as a single in August of 1968. The track was the first of many post-Pet Sounds era throwbacks to the early Beach Boys sound which would become continually more cliched and eventually lead the Beach Boys to the level of self-parody they would eventually succumb to in the 1980s while their closest contemporaries The Beatles nearing the end of their run in 1969 would go on to be viewed as the most influential band of all time. However, the song itself is not bad on its surface, and it opens with a futuristic sounding (for 1969) drumbeat captured by then-Beach Boys engineer Stephen Desper using tape delays on the drums performed by Dennis Wilson and John Guerin. The song has been re-recorded numerous times over the years on various Beach Boys-related projects most notably the 2011 re-recording at Capitol studios featuring the five surviving Beach Boys at the time backed instrumentally by various members of both the Brian Wilson Band and Mike Loves touring "Beach Boys" to promote the then upcoming Beach Boys 50th Anniversary reunion tour in 2012. The hammering and power drill sound at the end of the song was an excerpt from a track called "Workshop" that was to be a part of the uncompleted "SMiLE" album.

It's so true, with the one you love time never passes slow. Isn't it the best to sleep against your partner? Even five minutes energizes me more than a whole night on my own. Great poem, love it!
You've captured the tender intimacy and deep longing of love so well, from those sweet moments of physical closeness to the bigger dreams of sharing a whole life together. I especially love how you ended with the hourglass sand and fading moonlight imagery.
Oooo part one was about you. Self love in a way. Then this is about what you want to do to another person. I like. 😍 Goosebumps. The longer lines, accompanied by the shorter ones. This must be written in a specific poetic form. Ruled by the rhythm, beat and rhymes. It flows so incredibly well. Okay. I am blown away. It's too much for me not to fangirl over this. The shift in the last six lines was expertly done. I felt goosebumps all the way through that part too. ❤️🤗
Awww, this was so sweet. Such a wonderful poem!
A sweet declaration of love, Krysha! It's what a relationship should be--warm and comforting.
Aw how sweet!
