5-15 Eagle Creek

The way he smelled,
the way he curved,
the way the sun dripped light through his hair,
the way he let me in...

I wandered too far.
I got too close,
but it was easy,
and comfortable.
His arms, branching out, reaching, were strong,
while his fingers,
fell about me,
embracing me,
his heart, although around me,
eluded me,
in the drops,
in the tumbles,
the catch basins,
in the shadows,
he hid from me,
but at first glance,
the way he moved,
beneath me,
beside me,
the way I moved,
the way I breathed,
drew me deeper,
into him,
into there.
for the first time,
I felt,
him again,
with me,
around me,
here.
