We Are Ours Poem by Shaina Dudek

Inside my veins, a pulse
My heart, a murmur
My bones, a chill
My words, a skip
My chest, a tick
My blood, an itch

Every cell is alive

Your voice
Moves through me, is carried
in all vessels, racing through my
Body, and I am weak

I surrender to You
the song that you play
renders me fearless
On my knees

Vulnerable and willing
to succumb to a love
You vehemently deny, until
Staring assuredly into your eyes
It refuses to let go

We are Ours
I to you and You to I
and forever now
Us against the remainder of Time
