I want to hold you close forever, to savor the vivid, fleeting intimacy, that, like candy, seems gone too soon. I’m a practical person, so I asked Peter, “What works better, duct tape or velcro?” Sure, some things will be awkward, at first, like walking, thanksgiving dinner with parents, shopping, bathing and driver’s license photos but those always suck - let’s accept that. We’ll live and love - together - without apologies. .

A sweet humorous verse, Anais. I had to laugh at the image of you "duck taped" to Peter. Love is a precious gift; live and love - together - without apologies my friend. :)
