A Beautiful Thing

That first kiss! Lips, so very, very soft. So sweet, so lovely. Holding you in my arms. Feeling you against me. Kissing you under the soft light of the moon. You are such a beautiful thing. Touching the soft line of your jaw, your smooth cheek. I had wanted to since that night we sat on the couch watching movies. I spent most of the time watching you. Soaking in details. So pretty, such fine features. The slight pressure and warmth as you leaned against me. This night we stand embraced. The sound of waves, the cool breeze, a soft still night. Moonlight broken by scattered clouds. The feeling as I touched the small of your back. The feel of your skin against my hand. You felt amazing.
