Chills creep up and down my back

My mind drifts away

Thinking becomes tedious and unneeded

I look at you as we move in tandem

Your eyes piercing mine and stealing my soul

But in this moment that is all I know

Your hand floats up to touch my cheek

Your other on my back to hold me up

As my knees begin to grow weak

You smile as closer to you I am drawn

With eyes so stern and mouth so loose

I cannot help but laugh

But this was your plan

For the minute the noise was starting to escape

Me, by my mouth you did take

Still in the moment what else can I do?

I would be lying if I said I did not want this too

For all I have wanted this whole time was you
