Intertwined

With bells on, leaning forward, keen as morning sunshine, keeping calm, keeping warm,

But then alarm bells, startled backwards, frozen like a blizzard, lovestruck strong;

Tummy shudders, gentle caress, elevated heart rate, lowered breathe;

Icy eyes, charming smile, passion like a storm, 

Intent in a clenched fist, goosebumps down your arm;

Midnight spill, morning guilt, hesitant laughter, awkward pauses, shit-eating grin, 

Should have left before sunrise, God's scrutiny, forseeable consequences, shouldn't sin;

Knowing gaze, subtle blush, sentimental good morning touch;

Entwined fingers face the day, and leave behind the bed they made.
