Complete

I am safe when you are near, like a baby nestled in his mother's arms. I can breathe without gasping, speak without stammering, my embarrassments fade in the glow of your smile. There is no pretense. I need no safety net; your closeness brings a feeling of well-being. Dancing with the lights low and kissing in the rain, holding you so tight, and hoping that you'll never let me go I feel complete.

Beautiful Keith, really expresses the tenderness in a loving relationship and the feeling of completion that comes with it. The line "There is no pretense." sums up this sensation perfectly and simply. All the best as always, Annie x
