You wrap your arms around me It’s the best thing I’ve felt in years I’m whole Heart to heart Arms around my shoulders, warm Hands gently atop your back, rest Cologne filling the air, breathe Your hair brushing my face, flutter I want to live in this embrace I don’t want to let go Scared to hold on too long Lest you think I’m trying To keep you here Against your will I wait, sensing Micro-movements That let me know You’re ready To let go
