In My Arms

He collapses into my arms and everything around us falls away. I feel his heartbeat through our clothes. It's so steady. The rythem of his heart is quick. _Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump. _I try to memorize it, but I'm too focused on the feeling of him in my arms. My arms are around his neck, his around my waist. I have one hand on the back of his head, exploring his velvety hair. My other hand traces down his back. His hands don't move. They're firm around my waist. He's holding on to me for dear life. I can't breathe anymore, but I don't care. I don't want to breathe. I want this moment to last forever, frozen in time. His head is cradled in my neck. I feel his warm breath on my skin. I am never letting go. I want to stay this way, our hearts beating together, for eternity. He holds me and I hold him. I keep pulling him closer, but there's nowhere left for him to go. He's as close as he can be and I want him closer. I want to be with him for all of time, until every star in the galaxy dies.
