Reverberating Heartbeats, a sound so intense. Uh-huh-sigh---, slicing the air. Eager hands clasping and making a pair. Lips purring, breathing, trembling your ear. Odd sprouting Goosebumps that pop and appear. Vivid swirl patches, heat from within. Evaporating droplets, steam off your skin Surging red armies invade every limb. Ouch-oh-moan, turns into a hymn. Uncoupled hand in the small of your back. Numbing resistance, all words, seem to lack. Drums beating, Hearts beating, decibels so true. Sounds ceasing, search ceasing, saying, "I do".
