One Night Standard

I wrap my arms around you, hold you tight,

wish it could be like this forever, one eternal night,

stand, slip my left to your right hand,

squeeze it tight,

as my other holds your neck and I lose my sight,

damn,

my eyes, close involuntary, melt into the smell of your hair and light

perfume lifts my heart on kite,

strings, none tying us in,

life seems stronger pressed up against you,

crown me king

no check mate, we're both here to win,

faces come out of the warm summer rain holding us in, voices ring strange,

against the familiarity,

of your heartbeat,

next to mine.
