A softness so unique,
I feel like a feather falling freely.
Was it flight or fright that
Led me to be a chicken till
Now?
The feathers were there,
But they served as
Blinds
And
Barriers,
Not
Softness
And
Comfort.
I opened my eyes today and realized if not now,
When would it be?
Was I going to let opportunity
Become
Hindsight or
Foresight?
Softness breathed at me with an air so cool,
I couldn't imagine we were in a warm room.
Two warm bodies and hearts,
That beat on the same planet that I inhabit
With
You.
The feathers fell off a little and
I felt like my glasses did too.
But as you know,
It didn't make a difference since my vision of two,
Became the only vision I needed:
One of
You.
Softness has never felt so human as the warmth of your skin,
Holding mine in the
Shape and
Essence
Of this thing we call
Hands.
A song has a beat,
And so do our hearts,
But unlike music,
Mine skipped a few.
Softness like a blanket
Wrapped me close,
And I don't want to get out of
Bed,
Now
Or
Ever,
Because the time went too fast,
But I don't regret a moment
That
Ever
Passed.
Because every time I wake up,
A smile is on my face,
And my heart skips once more,
And I know exactly what for:
I hope you noticed too,
I enjoyed every moment
Of spending time with
You.
No one told me lips could be that soft.
And a person be so warm.
I might have melted.
But I felt frozen,
And now I've thawed.
And from the ice,
I etch these words.
Your softness is so hard to find,
But I need no words
To remind
And
Remember:
This is what softness
Feels like.
Okay?
