Brittany Zedalis- A Poem

Breathe

fingertips that have

         seen fierce days

    beneath the sun

             brush away strands of

                        my hair

             as rain cascades

                            around us

                 hazel eyes so intense

           and familiar that they

                         could only be

                               yours

                            meet my own

               as your lips meet mine

                           and my breath

                        is stolen

                              along with my

                                          heart
