to be married

in my arms he lays, chest against my stomach, head against my shoulder, breathing against my chest
i watch his head rise with my own breathing and feel the warmth of his on me, in sync
i cannot imagine anything more serene or more amazing than this moment
resting, i don't know if he is asleep or not but i will be soon
and the warmth from his body is now my body's warmth
and the beat of his heart is now my heart's beat
and the life in his body is now the life in mine
we have become one and i will sleep soundly, even if just for tonight
