Maths Solution

Your vulnerability sank
into our embrace
and weighed my heart down
Your body shivered
to cast off its worries
but resonated with mine

My hands
stripped the layers
off you
My mouth
traced the bare facts
along the curves of your hips
My fingers
tapped a silent lament
on the keys of your spine

Your legs
formed a protective barricade
around me
as if to reinforce my attempts
to shut out the world

Your arms
sealed the distance
between us
whilst my lips found your warmth
and spread it like a fever

Our bodies subtracted all worries
and calculated the plural of happiness
