So Contagiously. 3/10/09

Here's another cell phone draft that I figured I should get down. Maybe the old posts aren't totally dead after all. :- P

It's time like now when I'm laying in your arms that I feel everything you could be. We're always running in circles until we fall, lying intertwined, the ultimate goal. I can't tell what we're fighting but whatever it is, we're not very strong. How many times will we fall? Once is all it takes but we insist on overachieving. What typical slackers. I can live without you until your hand rests gently on my stomach, gently brushing my own. A giggle leads to laughter so easily begun and tunes out any difficulties we could've otherwise conjured.

Light kisses on my cheeks and a tender touch to my forehead surprises my senses in a way I put past you. The opposing wandering and heat is exactly what I expected and nothing my body will let me fight. Maybe I'm using you to feel both cared for and fulfilled in moments like this. Maybe I'm just telling myself that (and failing; I know I couldn't use you). Even so, I think I'll take it. I feel so good right here, for at least these few minutes we forget about our walls. Maybe there's a reason we haven't moved an inch since the first day. But no matter where the story ends, I think I'll be okay as long as you're around in some way. I'm slipping in between you and your big dreams. It was always you in my big dreams.

You're the only one breaking me down like this.
