If Nature here wishes to make a mountain, she runs a range for five hundred miles if a plain, she levels eighty if a rock, she tilts five thousand feet of strata on end our skies are higher and more intensely blue our waves larger than others our rivers fiercer.

He slides his hand over my cheek, one finger anchored behind my ear. Then he tilts his head down and kisses me, sending a warm ache through my body. I wrap my hands around his arm, holding him there as long as I can. When he touches me, the hollowed-out feeling in my chest and stomach is not as noticeable.

When she comes She pulls you close She breathes in short bursts Her eyes close Her head tilts back Her mouth opens slightly Her thighs turn to steel, and then melt She is perfect And you feel like you are everything.
