A Lovers Game ❤️
Sometimes, the simplest moments can be the most romantic.
Life gets busy. Phones, work, children, responsibilities and a hundred other distractions. And sometimes we forget to stop and really look at the person sitting right in front of us.
I originally created “A Lover’s Game” as a fun romantic challenge for couples. But there’s something rather lovely behind it.
Two people. No distractions. Just a moment together, a little anticipation and a kiss waiting to happen.
Because sometimes, losing a game can be the most wonderful way to win. ❤️
A Lover’s Game ❤️
Come,
Sit opposite me.
No phones.
No distractions.
Just you,
Me,
And the gentle glow
Of candlelight.
Look into my eyes,
And I’ll look into yours.
No talking.
No touching.
Not yet.
A smile forms
Upon your lips.
Your eyes
Wander to mine.
The silence
Fills with anticipation.
Our hearts quicken.
A little closer.
Then closer still.
Until…
I can resist
No longer.
I lean forward,
Close my eyes,
And gently
Kiss your lips.
Soft.
Warm.
Unhurried.
You smile,
And whisper,
“I win.”
But darling,
If losing
Means kissing you,
I’ll happily lose
Again.
And again.
And again.
Though tonight,
It seems I’m still
Doing the dishes. ❤️
