Us

With your ocean blue eyes,

That have a dash of gray at the edges...

Your little smile and laugh that had me smiling all day.

Your gentle hand holding mine.

I can feel your strength - even if you show weakness.

My blue eyes, meet with yours

My small hand gentley strokes your hair.

You give me a hug...

A strong, yet gentle touch around me.

All I can see is you.

As you put that little strand of hair behind my ear,

I can hear your heart beating as you took my hand and began to dance.

Step by step, with your hands softly touching my hips -

My hands are wrapped around your neck.

I'm anxious. My head is filled with thoughts and words.

You lean in to tell me a secret.

I hold my breath as you whisper,

"I love you." He pulls away and looks me in the eyes.

I stopped. And I leaned in. I'm whispering back the same thing.

He looks at me. He kisses me. I smile and close my eyes.

I bit my lip and he bit his as well...

I think he's shocked, I took it that way.

I kiss him back... this time it's longer.

The dance is over,

But not for him and I.

He grabbed my hand, and took me to sit down.

He gave me another hug -

And another kiss.

I knew that was only the beginning of

Us.
