The Sweetest Pain Poem by Amanda Larsen

Her breaths hot against my skin
Her hands searching their way
to my soul...
Her heartbeats
Synchronizing
With mine.

But a sudden hesitation.
Time.
We have time...
We have forever...

Tears for what we don't understand.
Two bodies shaking
With pain
With wonder

She clutched on to me
As desperately as I held her...
We silently begged
Stay
For I can breathe
For I can feel

The sweetest pain
Her teeth
My skin
The heavy breathing
Fire
Together
One.
