step one,
come to bed.
two,
tuck me in
three,
crawl in next to me
four,
we kiss
five,
sleep.
blissful sleep.
six,
i wake up in sadness. i cling to you.
you stay. and hold me. and promise to never leave.
seven,
it's morning.
you're still here.
eight,
you're here. you're still here. you'll never leave. you'll always be here.

the smell of you
the warmth of your skin
these feelings within..

it builds.
the happiness,
the love...
it leaves me smiling
as laughter bubbles from the heart

your warmth,
your touch,
it all leaves me wanting..
wanting more...
more of you,
more of us,
more of this time together

The best gifts are rarely physically given to one another,
for the most part they are simply memories,
but one of the best physical gifts one can give
is simply a handwritten note.

I love this photo,
not because of how I look
or how it looks,
but because of everything it represents
and because of us.
