Passion Fruit and Sweet Vanilla

Deep Rich Beauty

By Ellen McAllisterPublished 7 years ago 1 min read

You have such a deep rich beauty. It comes off you like heat. It's in your eyes and the strong confidence of your smile. It's in the way you embrace being vulnerable. It's in the kindness you share with everyone. I can taste your beauty on your skin. Passion fruit and sweet vanilla. Salt and sugar. Your beauty blinds me and binds me. I hunger for you so. I want to take all your beauty into my being.

With my fingers I trace the lines and curves, the map of your skin. Play connect the dots with your freckles and moles. I can't believe that I'm the one who gets to hold You. These hands have known you. Touched and felt you. Every time I see you, touch you, smell you, taste you, hear you... My heart swells. My body sings. You set me on fire. I can't believe you have let me in. Gratitude is not a big enough word. It doesn't have enough room.
