Love III - 9. Your Hand
I take your hand in mine
and raise it to my lips
and taste your fingers one by one
and press my kiss against your palm
The breath you feel warm upon your skin
is only there because of the life
you breathe into me.
I hold your hand in mine
and feel the gentle strength
beneath the roughened skin
and I press its warmth against my chest
The heart that races from your touch
only beats at all because it is held
safe within that hand.
