just right

you’re just right.
you never blaze out of control,
never cold-shoulder,
even when it’s well-deserved.

your lips are never too far,
your arms always open.
your eyes always warm,
your words always kind.

our hearts beat in perfect time,
our hands intertwine perfectly,
our words melt..

into silence

and we never notice
because our lips finish the conversation.

our love is reckless,
imperfect,
painful,
and raw.

but it’s just right.
just right indeed.
