Eyes never leaving each other
Momentary gazes that last for ages
Searching within
Glimpsing a piece of ourselves
She looks right inside me
Playful kisses scented with passion
Slow brushes of lips
Lingering, straying
Tongues twining together
She clenches her fingers wrapped in mine
Losing the past in the present
In a languid embrace
Ease rising like heat
Our legs tangling, untangling
She closes her eyes, smiles
Laying together, bodies melded
Formless, dissolved in one another
One boundless "us"
Lazing in our warmth
She dozes lightly against my chest
