Never Parted

Warm weather had given way to cool October breeze,
Day had given into dusk, the last sun rays lay fading above the trees.
He smiled and my heart skipped away to be as close as close could be to him.
His arms around my waist holding me against him so as to allow me feel his hearts resound.
The fear of the unknown, never been this far, lingered on the edges of my mind.
Trust in him kept me grounded, patience was a strength he possessed and I knew that  he'd wait ever longer if in that moment I decided I wasn't ready to take that plunge, but I was!!
O how my body longed for more the moment I felt the familiar scrape of his lips to mine, and the feeling that overtook me, the mystery that was what he was doing to me.
I remember the heat, how my body flushed in fever with his body pressed to mine, how the chill wind of October seemed to disappear surrounded by him.
It was as if only I and him existed, that our two bodies were a fortress locking ourselves together and away from the world.
No doubts or hesitation with him, even if we were destined to be ripped apart in time after, I wanted him, he wanted me, we needed each other in that moment and it was worth the hell that may follow.
I remember the way he brought me to release and held me there, how foreign a feeling it had been, how I wanted it to end and continue all at the same time.
I remember letting him see me in ways no other had ventured and the gentle rock of us.
How love, connection became the reason for our bodies fitting, yours so perfectly to mine.
How he taught me things about my body I'd never known, how inexperience and naivety didn't seem to matter.
I remember....
After...
How we said our goodbyes...
How when the warmth of Summer returned goodbye was all we heard...
I often think of him...us...the way it was, at times when the cool October breeze replaces the summer warmth and day gives way to dusk...
In those moments I know we never truly parted.
