The First Time I Knew You

You were warm.

I was cold. 

Hard. 

And you were warm.

Warm like a fleece blanket

Softening my insides in cozy embrace.

 

You were sweet

Like you knew me before you ever had to ask

Why I was me.

 

You felt me

Like the only thing I ever needed was to be touched

The way you touched me.

 

 

I could have lay down there forever

Wrapped up in your heart beat

That seemed to make a dance for me.

 

You were already waiting for me.
