My Anchor
I stand before him -
vulnerable and exposed
taken in by the beauty of his soul
Without touching me
his strong arms pull me close.
Trust covers my being as if a blanket blocking out the harsh winds.
I kiss his mouth
Tasting the secret
Of a life hidden in the corner of dreams.
The room spins around me
I’m falling -
falling yet anchored more securely than ever before .
