📍Along Fishkill Creek, New York

Slow down, you said. 

  As I run away with you,

    running away with me.

Slow down, you said.

  As I look into you,

    looking into me.

Slow down, you said.

  As I hold you,

    holding onto me.

Slow down, you said. 

  As I push into you

    pushing into me.  

Slow down, you said.

  As I breathed into you

    breathing into me.

Slow down, you said.

  As I let go of you

    letting go of me.
