Head in your lap, a million thoughts spinning through my head, breathing is out of the question, hands shaking. Funny thing about it is every nerve in my body may be firing off at once, but lying on that bench, rain beginning to commence it’s onslaught. I felt at home. Maybe that’s you.
You. Exhausted, wrapped up in a blanket, stressed to hell and back. You looked like an angel. When our lips connected for a brief moment I forgot it all, everything dissolved like the last bits of ash in yesterday’s bonfires. I wanted to run with you. I wanted to go, live, be free. I wanted to hold you, to touch you, to feel you. I wanted to wake up to those eyes and doze of to the smell of your hair. I wanted to take all of your stress and your pain away.
