.so intimate.
you move my hair
to touch my face
behind me
you growl
into my ear
my arms smell
like you
and my shoulder
still aches
from your pinches

(secretly
I treasure
every pain.)

your lips were
close to my cheek
.so intimate.
you treat me
like you've always
known me

(& secretly
I treasure
every pain
you give.)

Author's Note: it's about keeping those moments. they don't mean anything in the context of the big picture. but they mean so much individually. the make life worthy of living.
