Lying next to you
and feeling your skin
touching me in places
that haven't been
touched by anyone
in a very long time
lying with our bodies
entertwined
in a dance
without any music or beat
except for that of our hearts
when we meet
body to body
skin to skin
reminding me
of love that has been
forgotten
in the depths of my soul
hiding
where nobody knows
till one day
when you came for me
showing your love
in ways I could see
that I am still alive
in my body and soul
that I am a woman
that only I control
I am yours
but I am also mine
and you are my knight
across the sands of time.
