As We Were

I want us back as we were
Times when kisses paraded across our lips
And our fingertips conducted the music
Times when the most welcome embrace
Was the look in your eyes
Or the warmth in your words
Times when only a thought of you
Ignited a fire within me
Times when our hearts were seamless
When our bond was strong
When you thought of us getting married
And you envisioned the scampering of little feet
Filling the silences between the rooms.

I want us back as we were
When caring was second nature
And a frown was unrecognizable upon your face
When your heart needed mending
And my loving arms destroyed the pain
When I said I love you
And you never faltered saying it back

I want us back as we were
When an outstretched hand
Prompted a gesture of trust
Not a worldly impulse of lust
When my memory never stumbled
And my lips never mumbled
The words I longed to say

I want us back as we were
I want me back in your arms
To feel your skin warm mine
Absorbing each touch,
Recording every word,
Eagerly consuming each look,
To readily fall under the spell of your kiss...

I want us back as we were
When loving was an adventure
And every minute was treasured.
