The way we met, and how much we get along has caused this yearning for what we both know we want. The breeze outside was light, the smell of the air was sweet. Your laughter ringing in my ear as we playfully chase each other. The way your hair blows back as you run, the way the sun makes you appear to glow. All these cause me to want it even more. You make me work for it as you stealthfully dodge my attempts. The grass so soft, makes quite a soft spot to land as I finally catch you by carefully grabbing your shirt and pulling you in to a hug as we fall to the ground. As we lay in our cuddled state, I look deep into your eyes, searching for your passionate soul. You look too, and calmly comb my hair back as it hangs in front of your view. As if by instinct, we lean towards each other and our lips softly brush against each other, causing us to want it even more. I tease you by not going for it quite yet, even though i want it so much, as we just lie there holding each other wanting the moment to never end. Soon temptation takes over as we lean towards each other and our lips embrace in a kiss. Our lips circle as we enjoy the moment. As quickly as it began, the moment ended as our embrace stops and we just stare at each other. You smile and I smile, as we fall asleep in each other's arms.
