Shade

It may be for just a moment,
a moment none-the-less,
but at this precise moment,
as you hold your arm around my waist
and pull me towards you before I play hard to get,
when you pull hairs off my glossed lips in preparation for one kiss
which turns into a hundred,
this moment where I desire to be one with you
and you desire the same,
I love you.

Those three words which caused me so much stress,
can be heard through your kisses;
they tell me your feelings,
tell me your past, your secrets, your public announcements.
so for this moment, I love you more than I thought possible.
For this moment, I forget any complications the word love can bring.
And I remember the simplicity love can entail.
For this moment, future doesn't exist because the present kisses
convince me that they'll last forever.

I may not feel this way tomorrow,
but this precise moment is conquered by my heart
which can only say those three words.
I love you.
I love you.
I love you.
