I Love You, Said For The First Time

Your lips are soft against my neck, sending shivers,
to every part of my body, making me numb.
Butterflies wildly, madly flying in my stomach.
My heart pounding so loud, I thought you might hear it.

There is so much passion, so much raw lust,
between us, enough to last both our lifetimes.
You move, from kissing my neck, to my own lips.
When our lips touch I'm flooded with every emotion.

Slowly, your lips dance gracefully across my cheek,
enough to make me insanly wild with hormonal rage.
You stop when you touch my ear, you do something different.
You don't smear it with kisses, making me moan with pleasure.

Instead you whisper into it "I love you" for the first time.
Those three fatal words, that you had never said before,
were waisted on me, me, your first kiss, first date,
and right there, and then, I was, your first love.

I remember hearing the trickle of the water below us,
there on that bridge, away from all civilization.
I remember seeing the silhouette of the moon,
bright against the clouds, bathing us in light.

There was only you and I, nobody, nothing else.
Not even time itself was present, it had ran away.
I knew, you had to feel my heart against your chest.
For it had exploded inside me, but I wasn't dead, no.

I had never been more alive, scared, more happy,
you had given me the key, to your precious heart.
A key that I shall wear around my neck always,
stating that you are mine, and only mine. Forever.

With my heart pounding, my eyes watering, hands shaking
I slowly raised my head, brought my lips to your ear,
and whispered "I love you too." Then I grabbed you
and wrapped you so tightly in my arms, I had to be careful.

There, then, on that brige with you in my arms,
so far away from everything, the entire world
was gone, only us, only our hearts beating in sync
I realized, that I want you, forever. I never want to let go

I want to love, cherish, protect you, forevr and always.
I always want to be there by your side, when your down
so I can pick you back up, and remind you, that I love you.
I want to be there when you succeed. To tell you I love you. And I shall be, always.
