You finally gave in. I could feel how tense you were; How each nerve in your body felt- Rejecting the situation against their will. But then you gave in to yourself. And then me. You relaxed and your arm pulled in, Pulling me with; you felt strong. Your nose nudged the back of my head, Making me smile into the dark. You held me and the moment As if it were the most important thing. With each breath you took in It filled the curve of my back, And then I could breathe easy. Because you finally gave in to us.

Giving In
You finally gave in. I could feel how tense you were; How each nerve in your body felt- Rejecting the situation against their will. But then you gave in to yourself. And then me. You relaxed and your arm pulled in, Pulling me with; you felt strong. Your nose nudged the back of my head, Making me smile into the dark. You held me and the moment As if it were the most important thing. With each breath you took in It filled the curve of my back, And then I could breathe easy. Because you finally gave in to us.
