To my dearest one….
Dear you,
I want to know you.
Like really, really know you,
I want to count and cherish each of the little beautiful imperfections of your beautiful face,
I want to be able to trace your jaw line with my finger like an old habit
I want to commit to my memory the colors of your eyes n the way you crinkle when you laugh
I want to kiss your lips n get swept up in them:
To be reassured that they only have a taste of mine
I want to feel swallowed up in the safety of your embrace
I want to run my finger through your hair
Until am acquitted with every strand
I want to memorize the sound of your laugh
I want your hand against my back pulling me closer to the solidarity of your being as we dance
I want to get used in hearing your voice
I want my fingers intertwined in yours
I want the rhythm of our heartbeats to align
I want our souls to mingle
I want to know you
I want to love you
#rexymose
