Embrace Quote by Carlton Mellick III
““I lie on my belly and embrace the fleshy ground, to get closer to my love. My cheeks become wet with tears, or maybe it’s just sweat rising out of the skin below me. I drift into sleep, absorbing the sound of Stacy’s heartbeat vibrating through my entire body.””
