Just Us

Just Us
To feel your body pressed to mine
Our fingers intertwined
To feel your breath on my lips
Your hands on my hips
So many thoughts running through my head
My pale cheeks turn a bright red
You wrap your arms around me
It feels like we were meant to be
I whisper, "Don't ever leave me...never?"
You smile and say, "Forever and Ever?"
I gently put my hand against your face
Not one heartbeat out of place
We look up at the sky
Wishing not another second would pass us by
We slowly separate and part
Could our love just be the start?
You walk slowly away
I wish you could stay
My breath, ragged and rough
I didn't know watching you leave could be this tough
Before I knew it you were gone
I sat on my porch until it was dawn
You came the next morning
And without warning
I jumped on you with joy so strong
That our love couldn't ever be wrong
Yes, we might get in fights and fuss,
But I think it will be forever: just us.
