I have loved you in the coldest of snowstorms that winter has to offer, Felt your warmth through the curve of your lips, The music of soft fingertips. My body is your piano, We write a different genre of music when we love. There are warm rays of sunshine cast over our flesh And the snow glistens with the light you shine in. I’ve never felt safer, wrapped in the protection of your arms During the loudest thunderstorm in the middle of spring; When the skies are dark and grey, lightning shooting like swords Against earth’s ceiling. I’ve held your naked body against my own, Drawing over the cliffs of your hip bones, the valley of your Belly button and the mountain range of ribs, The cage that protects your heart from the heat of the Summer temperatures that I hold within me, your warm Anatomy heating my body like the core of earth: From the inside out. I’ve ran my fingers through the sweet sweat resting over Your back, like droplets of dew on a leaf in the early morning Humidity of summer after a night of making love. We watch the leaves change color ad stroll softly To the ground in autumn. The temperatures begin to drop and the branches are naked And bare, like my skin in summer while we sleep.
I’ve loved you like the snow that grips the bark. I am cold, but winter has always been your favorite.
