Closed eyes
The floor beneath my knees
Hands on my thighs
I breathe in
Release slowly the air I took in
A soft touch on my shoulder
Someone behind me
Now matching my position
I breathe in
Release slowly
A arm wraps around my chest
I grab the forearm
As I am pulled back
Back meets chest
I breathe in
Release
Whispers in my ear
Sounds of familiarity
For I know what’s to come
Breathing in deep
I prepare for what’s next
Eyes still closed
The softness of nylon brushes my skin
Tilting my head back further on your chest
Breathing in the moment
Matching my breath with yours
You hold my wrists
Press the nylon against them
Pull back towards you
Breaking the bond
Beginning the work of an artist
On an empty canvas
You begin to paint this picture
The medium is nylon
Breathing in
Matching you
Keeping steady
I begin to fall
In this bliss
I feel myself flying
No longer aware
Enjoying the flight
Eyes still closed
My body on the floor
I am flying
The flight slows down
Feel of nylon brushing my skin
My arms
Chest
Wrists
Every bit of me feels a softness
You bring me to your chest
My back meets you
Holding me tight
Breathe in
Slowly
Breathe out
