That feeling of ease I get– I only get it when I’m with you. In your arms. By your side. Feeling your breath against my neck. I love the way you smiled at me that night and said, “I need to lie on my stomach.” But you said, “But I will try as hard as I can, To cuddle with you.” I smiled. You wanted to hold me. You really wanted to. You flopped onto your stomach, But wriggled over to meet me– Skin met skin and I felt… That feeling of ease.
