In the Midst of Love

We left it somewhere Hanging in the star filled night, lying between the separation of our lips filling each space between each break when we kiss Riding our twisted tongues It wrestled with us as we made the sheets dance meeting us at breakfast swirling in our coffee extra cream more sugar..Please Morning Kisses delight, Cheeks resembling those of the sky, right before sundown It was the power of thee who slowly led my head to your chest putting all my problems, contemplations, & unanswered questions at rest. It was the force of thee who sent your fingers nascar racing through my hair, then up my skirt and around my shirt only to simply hold me. Console me. Because it is he who knows me. Our hearts went hand & hand, spotlight shining as we watched the two slow dance. And we’ll converse about the worst, exposing our wounds unafraid to describe where it hurts. But we left it somewhere Between all the hello’s and goodbyes And..maybe we just forgot or did it never cross our mind? But we left it somewhere!! Or did we leave sitting next to fear? Carrying a bright red sign reading “DARE NOT COME NEAR” I.LOVE. YOU I love you I love you There. I found it..
