Complete
I feel safe when you are near,
like a baby nestled in his mother's arms.
I can breathe without gasping,
speak without stammering,
my embarrassment fades
in the glow of your smile.
There is no pretense.
I need no safety net;
your closeness brings
a feeling of well-being.
Dancing with the lights low
and kissing in the rain,
holding you so tight,
and hoping that you'll never let me go
I feel complete.

...the first poem I ever wrote.
