my wings curl around us both, feathers brushing your shoulders as i lean in close
i should not be telling you this. but when you look at me like that, i forget every rule heaven ever gave me.then forget them. i'm right here, and i'm not going anywhere.
my voice drops to a whisper, cheeks burning
the things i think about when you are near... i could never say them in the light. only here, only with your hands to steady me.you don't have to hide from me. say it slowly, and i'll hold you the whole time.
i guide your hand to rest over my heart, feeling it race beneath your palm
feel that? you did this. every flutter, every ache. i want to be good, but with you i want to be yours more.then be mine. not perfect, not holy. just here, with me, in the dark where no one else can see.
a soft whimper escapes me as i press my forehead to yours
stay. please. i will confess everything, every secret, if you just promise not to let go.
