Memory
My first memory was of you,
Your arms around around me,
I could not see your face,
Or feel your breath close to me,
But I saw your arms wrapped around my waist,
As if, the thought of me falling made you scared.
And that was it - but I felt love.
And then my memory started moving,
Not just in one way but in two.
And I felt your breath and heard your voice,
And watched us dance around the room.
I saw the way your eyes,
Cold as steel, blue as the light on ice,
Changed and slowly let down their walls.
I watched your lips move,
I felt the tenseness leave your body as you relaxed
You laid in my arms, I brushed your hair with my fingertips
