Beneath my pillow

Left hands woven together in the night
Rings touching
Cold feet pressed into warm shins
Arms encircling.
Breath moves through my hair,

a breathing blessing.

We’re facing the same direction
In sleep
In life
And in love.

  15. Sigh. This was how it was last night, this morning, and how it will be tonight. I love this, but it makes me want to stop commenting and just cuddle with my fiancé. 🙂
