Union

The musk of your body 

Pulled me towards you.

I touched your forehead, 

Promising I would give 

It vermilion.

I touched your lips 

Promising I would give 

Them the lipstick of my love.

 

As you tousled my hair, 

I captured you in my arms 

To feel the heat 

Of your bosom 

And time stood still 

To witness our union.
