Unfathomable

Tucking my head into the sweet scent of your neck,
The feeling of fingertips on my back,
The warmth of your skin in contrast to the icy wind,
These are the things I will never forget.

Skinny dipping in moonlight,
Dressing Oysters before midnight,
Flavours of fantasy as I crave to have you near me,
Undeniable intensity limited by responsibility.

Getting caught making out,
Laughing till our bellies hurt,
Blushing like teenagers,
That’s what life should be like.

The anxiety of separation,
The space between,
Somehow we’ve managed to keep it all in,
A whole year of wishing, wanting and longing.

Your kindness and patience as I travel the world,
Your complete understanding,
Your genuine want to protect me,
Understanding that he flew to Thailand simply to break me.

Somehow I cannot fathom,
This connection that’s beyond explanation,
This feeling of complete understanding,
Old souls reconnecting?

Thank you for your constant admiration,
Your encouragement and patience,
Your respect and chivalry,

It all means the world to me.
