Hip Hop and Country

As day is to night,
Not whole without the other--
Two people in love.

Day and Night. Dark and Light. Different, but oddly the same. In the symmetry of a well-written haiku. A Yin to its Yang. Opposite, but fulfilling, completing. HER HAND IN MINE. It fits. SHE FITS. City Girl and Country Boy.

Sensual and Sweet. Sexy and Smart. Almond eyes saying exactly what I want to hear. Freckled face like a starry night. Scrunched-up nose to break the gaze. Rewarded with a smile and a gentle squeeze. A whispered sweet nothing--feels like something…special. Gentle kiss on the neck. A moment, just another moment. Another amazing moment. Hot chocolate in hand. No need for conversation.

Captivated, Intrigued, and Aroused. Heart and Mind concur. Falling, definitely falling. Head over heels. Sounds crazy, but feels right. Could this be love?

Cruel fate awaits along with the plane. Finally found, now must separate. Chinese Adventure. Bittersweet Goodbye.

Given just a taste,
A feeling so sweet and pure.
Left thirsting for more.
