Breathe You In

I want to breathe you in

every day

as if it were my last

as if each  moment was just the start

a beautiful adventure of the heart.

You are my everything

my life

my reason for being

the force behind my existence.

You own all that I am

and everything that I have

you deny, or permit me 

each step

you choose to allow my next breath.

At night

when I rest my forehead against your back

feeling the smooth skin against my face

I breathe in your heartbeat

and float on your breath.

I want nothing more

than to be yours

for the whole of every existence

throughout eternity

over

and over again

until the end of time

because I exist to be yours

to hear your voice whispering in my mind,

"Mine".
