Lay with me for a bit, my love. Hold my body close, squeeze my hand tightly and feel my breath on the back of your neck. Love is here, around us and through us, binding us together in a moment that will echo through eternity.
Let’s listen to the winter wind howl outside our warm nook, the snow falling gently as the seed we have planted awaits its spring promise. Know that the man who lays beside you honors you in every breath and carries within him a heart that beats for you. Know that the space you share with your warrior has been blessed by time and our own intention. Know that I would defend our space with all I am and all I ever could be.
That is my truth, for I love you through my bones.
Let that be, and feel it. Feel it through your own bones too.
