Forever

His eyes, like the mirrored reflection of a shallow pond, but with a depth that is beguiling…

His lips, so soft and sweet, I could kiss them over and over for hours… days… forever…

His beard, speckled with silver, silky to the touch, but deliciously scratchy on my neck, breast, belly, …the super soft spot behind my knee…

His fingers, oh dear God, his fingers, long and slender, strong and teasing, stroking, squeezing, pinching, kneading, swirling, twirling, invading…

His manhood, the way it curves, the way it fills, the way it looks in his hands, the way it feels in mine, the way we fit, perfectly…

His strength, as a man, as a lover, as a father, brother, son, friend and absolutely, as a husband, never weak or absent, always available, for anything…

His brain, so intelligent, filled with knowledge of depths I’ll never penetrate, makes our son smarter, me richer, the world better, every day…

His wit, childlike, at times, easy and fun, and most appreciated during moments when my heart and mind are heavy, because his are never too heavy to laugh…

His hopes, …wrapped up within me, I take them everywhere, so we could never be apart, not with this beautiful part of him locked inside me…

His love, sweet, gentle, kind, open, honest, innocent, whole, not difficult, not contingent, not replaceable… mine.

His everything…
my everything…
I am his…
he is mine…
forever.

  1. Lovely, Mel. I may have to “steal” your words, because this sounds like my DH. I’m proud of you for penning this (especially in the wake of the previous one), and please do read it to him, and give him a copy. These are the things he needs to hear from you!! He wants to make you happy. Make a pact with yourself to stay as positive as you can. Smile, laugh, love. Let that oxytocin, endorphins, etc, etc. run through you a while. Hugs!

    1. Oxytocin high is my favorite! When I was pregnant, I got so high off that hormone that I felt as though I might burst open with all the love I felt, for my husband, my growing baby, my life! I’d love to get that feeling back.

    2. And I’m definitely trying to stay positive, part of that is taking care of myself. Being kind to myself. Spoiling myself (hello, a bubble bath that isn’t for the five year old? It’s been quite a while!) Please do share with your DH. I’m happiest when others can gain from my words.
