Read Softly
Read to me
while I lie here with eyes closed against the sky.
Read to me with passion
of the smell of lemon
and musk wrapped in silk and satin.
I rest here in your voice and drink
your very words.
Read to me with lilt of breath.
Breathe me to the brink
of lasting
as I sink into your sighs.
Read to me gently,
read softly into the night.
