She Stands Behind Him

She stands behind him —
not to hide,
but to claim her place.

Close enough to feel the strength in his back.
Close enough to feel when it tightens.
Close enough to steady him without a word.

He faces the world.

She faces him.

He carries the visible battles.
She guards the parts no one else is allowed to see.

Her presence is not fragile.
It is deliberate.

She rests against him like flame against steel —
soft, but capable of reshaping everything it touches.

He knows she is there.
He doesn’t have to turn around.

That’s trust.
That’s intimacy.
That’s power.

She is behind him
because she feels safest there —
and because he feels strongest knowing she is.

This is not submission.
This is alignment.

Two forces.
One current.
Fire without destruction.
Desire without chaos.

Back to chest.
Breath to breath.
Power to power.
