Touch

Walking away, in silent footsteps,
She looked back and smiled, to melt his heart
He ran towards her, through forest thickets
Over gnawing thorns, that set them apart

Her hair flew as she glided away,
Leaving a trail of love and smile,
He breathed it in, with arms open wide,
For it had been long, since he had felt so alive

He took her in his arms, and looked into her eyes
He saw her thoughts, her laughs, her cries
Yes, they had met after 180 days of winter
And now they were united, under the beckoning skies

The rush of blood, the touch of skin,
The sound of breath, the taste of him
The smell of lust did bring them near,
Their hearts rejoiced, in silent song,
With unsaid words, and that unshed tear

Breath

" Why did you have to break this up? Why couldn't you let me be? "
" I wanted to be with you forever. Life doesn't go the way we plan it. "
" What stopped you? Don't you think I deserve to love you back? "
" You are the only one who has truly loved me. I can't bear to see you in pain."
" Then why are you running away! Why are you packing away all my pictures? "
" Your smile makes me want to hug you again. To melt away in your arms. I want you to breathe me in and hold that moment forever. "
" I don't understand-"

" My love is wild David. I can't afford to let myself go free again. Love for me isn't just a photograph. It isn't even a person. It is to believe that one day, I would be exalted beyond reason. It is to live a dream and sleep away time. It is to touch the stars and mock the moon. "

" You never gave me a chance Jane. For all you know, I was waiting for you. To let me breathe you in. I love your smile, your hair, your lips. I love your smile. I love your soul Jane, can you live with that?"
I
" That is what scares me David. I will stay in your breath forever and you'd never breathe out. "
