warmth.
dusty blond hair, hazel eyes.
i catch myself fascinated by the way
your chest tends to fall and rise.
soothing rhythm, racing heart, you gently sway.
with shaking hands i suppress
unspoken thoughts and we sit awhile.
hummingbird wings beat in my chest
my racing heart finds peace in your smile.
a foundation on which to stand,
you build my up, make me stronger.
with your gentle smile and helping hand,
please, guide me through this storm just a little longer.
i hope i'm not holding on too tightly.
and that one day, i too can shine as brightly
as you.
