Analysis of Little
I held you; the delight of my night
pouring into every pore, a part of me
mixing with your warmth
Life had never squeezed my fingers
so tightly, that the sight of you
stole my beats
One by one.. and I stood
Heart in palms; cradling the skies'
above, lost between the stars
Was my love.
