I like the gentle things in life.
The curl of your eyelashes as they rest against your cheek when you sleep.
The way you absentmindedly run your fingers along the bones in my wrist when you tell me about the last days you spent with your mother. The steady clinking reverberating through your truck as the rains soft fingers drum against the windows and we huddle on your leather seats to keep warm. The way you slowly push my hair behind my ears and feather kisses upon my brow as I cling tight and inhale the scent of you until it fills me completely. The crinkling of your eyes as you smile into my over-sized sweater when I throw my head back in laughter. The deep humming of your throat as we talk about the things we’re scared of losing. My head resting against your chest and your hand on my back gently steadying the beating of my wild heart as the sound of your voice dances around me and lulls me to sleep.
Gentle and simple, but ultimately beautiful.
Sometimes gentle and simple is all that is needed. 🙂 Hope your day is well, Rob!
It’s chilly and windy, but the sun is out, Dina. I hope that your day is going well, too. 🙂
October, November, and December are my favorite months out of the year! I love the chill. I woke up yesterday morning and looked out the window, and the sun was just starting to come up, tingeing the sky pink as it rose. The fog was rolling in over the corn fields behind my house, and it was the most beautiful scene. I had to stop and stare for a moment. I’ve been spending most of my evenings stoking a fire in the fireplace and winding down to a glass (goblet really) of wine. This time of year is just so magical, and perfect. Anyway, it is going EXTREMELY well! I could do without the wind though 😉
It sounds absolutely beautiful! What a lovely way to wind down.
