Hummingbird Hearts

Limerance to love
Urge of late-night calls
Desperate with desire
Every note, every beat

Airborne anticipation
Hummingbird hearts
Lives glow and sparkle
Simple becomes spectacular

Matching pieces
A Disney-esque dream
Staring through the infinite
My waking thought

From burn to warmth
Anxious hands grasp at water
Push and pull, knowing need
Was it all for naught?

Soften with breath
Wrapped in safety
Comfort in confidence
Believing our best selves

Stable foundation
This new place of us
Hands and hearts entwined
Slow and steady
