My Safe Love

Strolling down the narrow street,
Fingers interlocked in a loving grip
My love, I hear the rhythm of your heartbeat
It pounds in perfect harmony with mine
The roses sparkle with a deeper hue today
Their fragrance saturates the air around us
Nature has become an entourage on our walk of desire 

A few more steps in hopeful delight
We reach the porch of our forever abode
With a bashful smile, I stare up at his chiseled face
Just to confirm it’s all real and true
Suddenly, the stony piercings of the ground below
Fade away from my anxious feet
My lover scoops me into his protective arms

The sun smiles her last and bows
She leaves us to her sister’s sliver rays
That shimmers, illuminating our lovers’ embrace
And while I’m trapped in the freedom of my lover’s grip,
My cheeks burn with a comforting smile
As I remember, he will always be mine
