Her
Her embrace is a welcomed touch
A warmth that fills your soul
You catch her contagious smile
A reaction you can’t control
Her laugh is a black and white movie
A catharsis in her sound
Her energy a classic
A rush of nostalgia when she is around
Her eyes hold her secrets
There’s a mystery in her gaze
An unsolvable puzzle
An inescapable maze
Him
Suspended in time
Weightless and unworried
We hang on to the moment
Sedated magic unhurried
His scent is captivating and wild
Forever embedded in my brain
Masculine and crisp
A few hints of the earth after a rain
Insecurities held at bay
I live inside your sanctuary
Your embrace keeps me safe
My senses relaxed and unwar
