Dance with me as the storm crashes outside,
May your arms be my safe harbour and mine your refuge.

Silence the noise of the outside world with your kiss,
Let the only sound I hear, be the shuddering of our breaths.

Teach me to forget the chaos outside,
To shut out the judgements and stares of others.

Let me stay lost in the sheets, hiding in the moment,
Knowing I will wake to face a world ruined by a beautiful storm.
