it is you that i’m with

i keep my hand in yours
my step in sync
each breath, bated
paused to time my inhale with yours

i keep my eyes on your body
following every curve
every twist and turn

i keep my ear close by
in case you want to whisper
and my lips not far
for a chance at the softest kiss

i’ll take any connection i can find
when it’s you i’m with

and, trust me
it is you that i’m with
