You and Me

Falling asleep to late night messages,
Just couldn't fall asleep without 
One last sweet text.
You lit my life on fire and slowly,
Surely, it made its way to my heart.
Your warm, safe embrace was always 
There when I wanted to cry, those
Sweet messages I’d never expect,
Always there when I needed to smile.
That exhilarating moment, the
Sweet, hungry kisses and the
Tender touches that melted my heart.
Staggered breaths and skin against skin
The one truth I knew was that this
Was right. Love makes no sense, but
When I’m in your arms, the world fades away.
No tears, no pain, no fear,
Just us.
I hold your memory close to my 
Heart until it’s just you and me again.
