You're My Home

by Katie Moore

Something inside of me whispers, so this is what it’s supposed to feel like. This is why people love to kiss.

I’d lie in bed at night and dream of this, trying to escape, or maybe it was hope… I don’t know. But being here now…with you, it’s everything I thought it would be.”

“Please, let me taste you,” I beg before I even think about what I’m saying.

“It was perfect… You’re perfect.”

“I love you, Zach. I want to be with you in every way. I want to be boyfriends and lovers. I want to plan a future with you. I want us to travel together, get married, and have kids. I want it all.” His thumb runs over my lips. “It’s always been you. I was just too stupid to realize that my body wanted you, also.”
