Forever Moment
She stepped out of the shower
wrapped up in her towel
stood there dripping wet
skin hot and glistening
stood in front of the mirror
I walked up behind her
wet hair dripping down her back
I ran my fingers through it
said it felt like cold spaghetti
her eyes became more soft than usual
she always had such a loving gaze
I'd often times catch it come on a little stronger
...when it was just us
I pulled myself in close
my shirt becoming hot and damp
I realized what it was doing to me
I hadn't ever done what was on my mind
she had the same epiphany
her expression changed
a look of terror
...she couldn't
she had been hurt so many times
to let me inside her she would have to feel
I could see it in her eyes
