SHEETS

The expression of one lovers' night into the morning.

Throughout the night you bring my mind on a ride.

You take my heart to float on clouds, feeling divine.

You take my soul to a sweetened sugar land.

Melting at the touch of your hands.

Quivering at the sound of your voice.

When you say my name, I must stay poised.

Who do you see? Is there beauty in me? What do you need?

My baby, oh baby, you are too perfect for me.

This moment is happiness, content, meant to be.

After sometime we meet.

This transition is so sweet.

You open your eyes to sunshine.

Behind your head I lay awake;

thankful for every breath you take.

My waist, bound by your embrace.

Your hands greet my face and my lips seduce "Good Morning" out of you.

Merging your soul with mine by a touch,

you gently massage my thighs and adjust.

Your tongue knows what to do.

My back curves up;

finger tips lightly following your spine.

Glancing at the clock, 20 mins to 9.

Holding and rubbing my imperfect feet,

one movement to the right, I surrendered.

Defeat.

You smiling and meek.

I can't wait no more

... and I grab the sheets.
