Handfuls of love

We smile at each other

Our eyes interlock

Won't look away.

Can't look away.

The world stops turning

Time stops

His hand reaches for mine

I don't hesitate to weave mine into his

A perfect fit

Cinderellas shoe is no match

We are connected

Our hearts beat in sync

Heat spreads around my cheeks

His hands still in mine

Offering all the love

In his sweaty palm
