Looking in your eyes
Is just the same as traveling through time
Hurtling backwards through days, weeks, years
And lifetimes of memories
Hidden just behind the dark burnt umber of your irises

The smell of your breath as you kiss me
Sitting on a canyon ledge in the dark

The feel of your thumb gliding across my bottom lip
Successfully making me tremble under your touch

The sound of your voice in my ear, a noise I am instinctively aware of
Judging your distance from me based upon the decibel

The taste of river water in my mouth as we crash through a wave
Moving together in sync without speaking a word

The sight of your face, beaming as you turn your head on the count of
One…two…three!
Your smile burning just for me, forever engraved into my heart

As we grow older, our lives melting into one
As the excitement of an adventure turns into a daily contentedness next to one another
As the intense electricity of our passion lulls into a slow simmer of unconditional love

I can always turn to you
Gaze into your eyes
And experience every one of our moments together
With the same vividness, in the greatest of detail
All over again.
