Waiting, scent of ozone air thickens with promises and sighs, Watching the skyward giggling for the first drops to fall. Wild hearts drumming, we’re ready to rise, Wandering barefoot, bare skin fearless of it all.
Anticipation shivers beneath our fingertips, Arms slowly reach, darkness finding our curves. Aching, we’re eager to taste rain on lips, Alive in the night, bodies as one, careless what observes.
Now, the rain’s rhythm is our only sound, Naked, our hands chart each secret trace. Need is the language our bodies have found, Nurturing touch, we fill every empty space.
Over us, winter’s chill lingers outside, Our bodies, skin-on-skin cocooned in down blankets so deep. Ours is the pulse no frost can divide— Open your eyes, love, our memories will keep.
