I wrapped my legs around your waste.
I whispered in your ear
“Stay”
And in that moment I wanted you to kiss me ,
Wrap your fingers around my curls
Enclose Them around my neck. Hard
Just hard enough for you to feel my pulse
The quiet beating and pulsating

I won't always be this open...this vulnerable
My trust is in the palm of your hands
In the space between our lips

This is the moment where you should pull me closer
And place your thumb gently on my bottom lip and breathe.
I whisper “stay,” over and over again

You told me you would, you told me ,'I love you”

And after that moment, I couldn't stop myself.
