This
by Sheye Blaze
What is it that we are doing
We've shared and connected
Deeply affecting each other
We've made love
You pulled me close
And let me hold you
Taking my hand in yours
Squeezing it tight against your heart
That is the thing that I noticed the most
Always holding my hand that way
When you were feeling things deeply
Contemplating the order of your life
No commitments were made
No other time set aside
Yet, I feel bound, taken
Preoccupied with thoughts of this
Smiling with memory of the weekend
The first kiss, your remembrance of me
The suddenness of your walls dropping
The shock of feeling your relief
Before the recognition,
Your shock at my sensing parts of you
Feeling your energy, your mood
The surprise of being able to tell me any story
