Another one. Just wrote it. Title sucks. Ah well...

B E A U T Y

Drops of rain against the window, branches sweeping the ground below. The sky is alive, awake, won’t surrender to the sleep - just like me.

You lie beside me - breathing regular, lips curled into a smile, oblivious to the liveliness on the other side of the glass.

Is it me you’re dreaming of?

You are beauty and I cannot tear my eyes away. Watching, looking, mesmerised - discovering things in you I have never seen before.

I crawl closer, seeking the safety only your presence can bring. Breathing your warmth, breathing your scent - you smell of you, of coming home, and you are mine.

Are you real, and not a dream?

Hands reaching, longing to touch, longing to feel the beauty of you. Your skin as silk beneath my fingers, and I cannot help but marvel at the angel that is you.

Eyes flutter open, settle on mine with an intensity I didn’t expect. Soft whispers of devotion leave your lips - but I love you more.

fic!
