vanilla & honeysuckle

[dreaming again...
As I slipped the delicate lace strap
From your shoulder
Your eyes closed
And breathing quickened
I pushed your hair back behind your ear

(I’m going to sit down for a while
In this place)

The one where I hear crickets chirping
Amidst the ethereal silence
of our shared breath
And I catch
The slight vanilla scent of your skin
Mixed with the honeysuckle
wrapped seductively around a fence

In this -
The beautiful silence

The place where my heart guides my hands
And you guide my heart... ]
