When we hug, hold each other tight,
Breast in breast, beating heart against beating heart.
Bound willingly and out of love. 

In that smile... That little twitch that betrays your
innermost thoughts. That curvaceous flowing of flesh
that speaks your joy to the world. 

Through tears, of happiness, of sorrow, of hopes and
dreams. Shed from the windows of my eyes... Belying
the rising tumult of emotions-raw-within my chest.
Surging at your sight, igniting at your touch, singing
with your joys and drowning with your sorrows.

I see the life, the wonder, the desire, the drive and the
struggle to be you... 

I find forever when I look into your eyes, the proverbial
porthole to your soul. Not because I'm punch-drunk on
your essence. Ha! That would be far to easy to admit.

I find forever because I find love. I find it in the depth
of my being, so passionate, wanting to reach out and
cradle, protect and embrace you, as you are. 

I found my forever, and it scares me. Why? Why? Why?
Because... In these small moments... In this forever...
I want to lose myself. 

To lose myself in you. 

That's love right??? A gamble? Place your bets, jump in
head first... Is it a gamble I am willing to take? My heart says
JUMP!!!
My mind says be patient... 

I love you. :) And sometimes it makes me want to cry. :(
If I give you all I am... Will you find forever in me?

I hope so... So here's to jumping. To losing myself, but not becoming lost.  
I think it's worth it.
Cheers, to finding forever.
