Genre: Love, Relationship
The Soundtrack to Your First Embrace
You fold your arms around her
With a whisper of wings,
Your breath in her ear
Like sea in a shell, washing
A distant shore and yet so near.
Your heart gallops,
A startled stallion
Running for cover,
Unsure of your lover,
Holding her with bones that creak
Like sails on a galleon.
Clothes rustle
As your fingers brush her face
In your first embrace.
