My hands become sweaty.
I tap my feet in anticipation.

Our fingers interlock.

My heart skips a beat.
A moment of silence fills the air.
We stare into each other’s eyes.

Letting my anxiety leave my body.
Words, phrases start to form in my head
What could I possibly say?

Nine letters.
Three syllables.

I relinquish my mind, body, and soul to you.
And only you.
