Catalyst

To test the waters
To brave this new world
and each time I do,
I find it inviting
And sometimes . . .

The waters come to me.

You're daring.
You step forward
      where even I would step back
Your comments and actions
      surprise me and please me
to no end.
You never cease to impress me.

melt, sink (into)
My arms around your waist
leaning, closely (into)
Your warmth against my chest
Talking casually like any other day
But going beyond any other day
This transcends.
This transcends everything.

In the dark,
In the cool air,
We're running.
Laughter,
Jokes,
The Innuendo and the Blunt Statements:
both common companions of ours.

Drive away,
Take us away, my friend.
I don't care where,
Just don't let this end.

I'll be your seatbelt,
Arms locked around you.
I won't let you go.
Whispering and singing softly
      in the dark.
