here ....
waiting
knowing you will come
sooner or later
hoping it will be sooner
yet knowing it will be.
waiting ....
expecting
knowing you will drive
the night roads
to lie down beside me
to have my body close to yours
to have our bodies
fit together in sleep ....
to be home.
waiting ....
anticipating
your body
so soft so warm
so strong and welcoming
....so wanting mine.
and then .... me
lying against your arm
cradled, protected, content
my face
half on your chest
half on your shoulder
leg wound around yours
hand resting on your side
free to caress
your face
your arm
your hair
the sheet pulled up around us
the blanket kicked onto the floor
our positions taken.
the night light shining
allowing me to see your face
your face
the face i love
and you saying .... turn the light out
and me saying .... soon ....
me just wanting to look at your
face
a bit longer a minute longer
me just wanting to imprint this
moment
of you in my memory
me just wanting to emboss your face
on my heart.
and then ....
the light is out
and we are
tasting the experience
of shared sleep
woven together by dreams and desire
woven together by entangled limbs.
here ....
waiting
knowing you will come
sooner or later
hoping it will be sooner
yet knowing it will be.
waiting ....
expecting
knowing you will drive
the night roads
to lie down beside me
to have my body touching yours.
waiting ....
anticipating you
knowing i am happiest
when lying beside you
my face
half on your chest
half on your shoulder.
