valentine day
when you touch me with these
feathers you hold in your hand
I shiver I long for more
I ask for deliverance from myself
I rise to your unspoken whispers
I run through my veins
I rush to reach that zenith
designed for likes of us
holding on to each other
we climb one step at a time
with your pace entwined in mine
I know the day we need to call ours
is just before this horizon
we shall reach through the skies
to hold hands for one time, our time.
