Intertwined

eyes locked on each other
we do not look away
not speaking
yet saying volumes
my lips quiver
aching for yours
it's late and raining
we are soaked but do not move

we stand there
body to body
oblivious to the world

if only you could read my mind...
say it
tell me you love me
say it

you take my face in your hands
and kiss me
a hard, explosive kiss
feeding our hunger
one for the other

and there, amidst the stormy night
you say, "you're everything i ever wanted"
"you are my peace and i love you!" 
"i love you and i'm never leaving you again"

we break from our embrace
and begin laughing as we
walk not run, from the rain

fingers intertwined.

*I've tried but failed miserably to write about what's going on in our world today.  So I turned to love.  Love makes the world go round.  I hope you enjoy it.  Be well bloggies.
