Come Closer

He looked at me with those soft green eyes,

I could feel myself melting into him.

I knew that I loved him and that he loved me,

But today just felt like a dream.

His body glistened with the ocean.

The sun hadn't come out yet,

But there was a hint of romance in the air.

He could tell that I was new to the whole idea of love,

But I was head over heels for him.

But could I tell him?

Would he understand?

Did he feel the same but was too afraid to say so?

We had spent one of the most romantic nights on the beach,

Yet I knew that this dream had to come to an end eventually.

I was too afraid to fall for something that could turn out to not be real. Was I really in a dream I wondered,

I pinched myself but the pain was definitely real.

As we stood on the beach holding hands,

 Watching the wave’s crash against the rocks,

I didn't want this to end.

The closeness,

The chemistry,

The spark between us,

 The lingering scent of his cologne on me.

This was a day that I would definitely remember.

We went over to a makeshift swing on the beach

As I sat in the seat and saw him coming toward me.

All of the sudden knew that this was exactly what I wanted.

As he wrapped me in his warm embrace,

it felt like we were the only two people on this earth.
