So Close... Poem by Lizzy Scott

You come so close,
Feeling your breath…
Looking into your eyes,
The feelings there said…

Your fingers stroking
Up and down my arm…
Your light touches
Say so much.

Fitting my fingers
In the empty spaces between yours,
Our hands mesh perfectly together,
I feel so at home…

Bringing my hand toward your face,
A gentle soft kiss
On the back of my hand it placed.


Wrapping your arms around me,
You pull me close and whisper in my ear…
Let me stay here forever,
In your arms I’m perfectly safe…

Feeling your warm breath
Steadied on my neck,
Nuzzling your face into my hair,
Closing my eyes and taking in what I felt…

Feeling your skin against my face,
Softly kissing your neck,
This feeling can’t be replaced.
Closer still, resting my head on your shoulder…

My form fits perfectly with yours,
Being so close, emotions overwhelm me.
Softly whispering into your ear
“I love you… stay right here”
