Couch Times

Never underestimate the power of the couch.

Loved One lying on one's chest, the sound of your heart beating in her ears, your hands in her hair, her breath slowing and deepening as she slips into sleep.

Often, we get wrapped up in overt displays of romance. Candle-lit dinners, grandiose dates and expensive gifts can so easily be replaced by lazing on a tree stump by a mountain stream, chilling on a rock, a long drive, a walk through a park, or just simply watching bad television together lying on a couch listening to the sounds of each other's breathing and heartbeat - and with phenomenal results.

It really is the little things that count the most. It's in moments like those that the true nature of a relationship is brought to the fore.

Are you able to just sit in each other's company doing very little else but sit? If I had my way, it'd be that way every day.

And starry-eyed I would remain forever.

The power of the couch.
