Intimacy

Intimacy loves the way people look in her eyes. Her significant others’ soft caress on her skin makes her feel special. The little moments of laughter or small memories made with the ones she loves fills her with joy. Though she doesn’t say it, Intimacy loves to explore. Not in the way of a teenage boy, but in the way of two souls joining as one. Intimacy isn’t one to make herself known but when the love of her life rubs her tense shoulders or kisses her neck she shows herself. Her everything, Love, is her missing puzzle piece. Love knows how to make her feel good while Intimacy makes him feel connected or intertwined. Love and Intimacy becoming one. The smallest moments giving each other the most pleasure. She’s fragile. Her nose is small, her facial features are soft and beautiful. Around her neck is a gold necklace that no eyes could be taken from. The pendant glistens and shows different colors from the different lighting. She’s scared to show herself around certain people. Showing too much to the wrong people can lead to showing herself less and less. Manipulation proved that her necklace could in fact, not glisten beautifully like others see it. In fact, he showed her that turning the lights off can take it away completely. Intimacy can feel unwanted; even if she’s with Love. Sometimes she looks in the mirror and tells herself that she’s important and Love will reassure her. The more she shows herself, the more prominent her features become. Love brings out her true self. When she’s around him, her short, brittle hair grows into long, wavy locks. Her once soft features became more distinct and she was colorful.
