Drifting

I was drifting

Lost among memories of my childhood

Believing in nothing

But the here and now

This was my life

without love

without warmth

without you

Then you were here

Like a dream of golden light

Innocence in blue eyes

Willing to trust a stranger

You let me take your hand

And lead you into the unknown

dancing to music unheard

Except for our beating hearts

Soft skin beneath my fingers

Eyes closed but able to see

Spoken words heard with a heart

And remembered with a soul

Sensations flowing through your body

Rising from a place you never knew

And we were one

If only for a moment

But you stayed in my heart

and I was afraid

Of the love

Of the warmth

Of you
