red velvet

You stare at me with those intense dark eyes

and look right through me,

your soul sipping inside of me,

my body trembeling slightly from that deep stare.

I trace my fingers against your skin,

its texture almost velvety and so smooth,

I close my eyes

and hear your words,

that you speek with so much kindness

I smile

and then tremble again,

as your voice is almost raspy

driving me crazy as I hold you closer,

and the words that you speak to me

are filled with all of this passion

and strong love that you have for me

you put your arms around me

and I feel safe

‘I am home’
