Missing You

It has been a long time since
I have been away from you
and tonight, I miss your soft-glowing
presence, and the serenading shadows 
conducting the silky symphony of
your peeling clothes. I miss
your reassuring steps, as you
approach the bed, and the gentle sagging
of the mattress as you press down
to bend over to kiss my cheek
as I fall into a blissful sleep.
