That First Night...
When we laid in the sand that night
with our tangled bodies
and you cradled my heart with yours.
When there were no words but instead
the sounds of whispering waves
that spoke of love we did not know yet.
When I felt the cool, damp sand encase my feet
and your laugh
tickle down my arms.
When the stars were as bright as Austin
and they swayed on the ocean’s surface
like drunk friends on the walk home.
When your soul began its slow descent
to mine where they intertwined and mingled and grew,
leaving us startled and gasping for fresh air.
When I felt our hands exposed to the breaking
of the clouds
and the smoke numbed our skin from the sharp night.
When you made me feel alive again.
That’s when.
That’s when I knew.
