Two parts to loving you

We love loudly — like claps of thunder before the rain, like hand-holding for the first time and kisses under the noon sun, like electricity dancing on the surface of my skin.

We love in bits and pieces — subtle in all our touches. You draw circles on my wrist, fingers dancing and looping like rewind. Uncertainty in every step, except for the steps that line the road to loving you — I would take them all.
