Love Poem: Always

Written by: Lucy Rose

Always

The way your hair flicks on your forehead,
The way you hold my hand in yours.

The way you fit perfectly around me
like armour; protecting, sheltering.

The way your smile lights up my whole day,
The way you squeeze me when we've been apart 
         for too long.

The way our hearts    t h u m p   in   time
between the sheets
when two hearts meet,
they say. Your eyes do shine.

The way you give me strength and
tell me that I can accomplish anything;

      you make me believe I can. I can.

The way we can never have enough of each other
Devouring. Consuming. Enjoying.

Young love that ages well;
What the future holds we can't yet tell.

Be it present, past or future
        with you is where I want to be.


Always.
