Love Poem: Matching His Music

Matching His Music

The beat of my heart
Matching the music

Fast as can be

Like horses stampeding 
Down a race track

But louder
I'm surprised he can't
Hear it

Because I feel like it's
louder then a cannon

And with him there
Right in front of me

His body pressed up to mine
As we dance in the moonlight

Under the stars
Late at night
With no one else around

Out on the beach
The sand under our feet

The water beating to a pulse
Much slower then my heart's

The feeling is sensational
Yet terrifying

I don't know what to do 
With myself

Other then continue swaying
To the imaginary beat
In his beautiful head

I put my chin on his shoulder
And shut my eyes

Moments slip away

He keeps me steady
I feel the tide coming up
Brushing our feet

I feel his hands 
Grip me a little tighter

A chill runs up my back

He stops swaying
Causing me to stop too

We stand in silence
Seconds slip by

He pulls me back ever so slightly
Still keeping his grip

His eyes looking into mine
Those eyes that look like the ocean
Just after a storm;
Beautiful

Boring into my soul

Finally, when I 
Feel like I'm going to faint

He leans in
And his lips
His perfect lips

Brush mine

His grip tightens 
Just enough 
To give me a push

And my hands slide up
And latch into his sandy colored hair

And again our lips meet
His warm and moist

I feel his energy pulsing into me

Finally we pull apart

He sits on the soft sand
Pulling my lightly down beside him

He puts his long strong arm around me
I lean my head against his shoulder

Slowly I begin to drift off
Hearing him humming 
His honey sweet voice humming

And now just before I fall to sleep

My heart
Matches his music...
