I stand, staring at you.
Punishing you with my eyes.
But I cannot look directly at you, not for long.
My fingers betray me, reaching out to you. To rake softly through that lovely beard. To skim tenderly over those sweet lips. To magnetize you, so desperate to wake the beast within.
So he might fight with me.
So he might frighten me.
So he might fuck me.
You stand motionless. Frozen. Like a dream.
My mind and heart, they’re arguing. Fighting the facts, and memorizing the ache that bears your name. That hurt fuels my magic and beckons me to look up. Look again. Look at you.
I swim in the crystal depth of those pale, sad eyes.
My mind quiets,
My heart stops,
My body lightens…
And I feel
Your hands in my hair.
Where they are meant to be.
Your breath on my skin.
Where it is meant to be.
Your lips on my forehead.
Where they are meant to be.
Your hands.
In my hair.
Where they were meant to be, all along.
(((awh-awh-Awhoooo)))

Nice! This so spoke to me… had a talk the other day with DH about needing to feel his fingers in my hair. “But I don’t want to mess it up… what if my hands are dirty?” he says. “DH, ALL women like to feel a man’s fingers in her hair…” I assured him. Especially now as I just had a Brazilian blow-out, and it is super soft and silky and TOUCHABLE!!!!

I know, right?! I told hubs once, “why do you think I spend so much time and money making it soft and silky?!” Lol.

Oh, and btw, my “natural” hair is more like that picture– so if HE can get his fingers in those curls…

Beautifully written, and I loved the repeated “meant to be” — that solid sense of knowing it is truly, wonderfully, right.

It’s such an amazing feeling of his hand in your hair. That special bond that no words need to be said. That perfect I have you Babygirl feeling all warm and cuddly inside!!!
