in the silence of lovers
too comfortable or too scared or just not ready
two souls struggling
for a connection, for something beautiful to share, for a future

in heated moments
hot from tempers and miscommunication when there are far better ways to raise temperatures
two people reaching out
for hands to hold them up, hands to support, comfort, caress, sustain, love

in a cold place
cold when life seems easier given up then fought for
my eyes meet yours
and no fight could possibly be too much

in a place we share
a home, a bed, any place where we both know what we're sometimes afraid to admit
we're meant for each other
too in love to let self imposed limits and inadequacies keep us from what we want
