Nightly Yearning

♥
I lay in bed at night
You entangled at my side
Palm upon your chest
Truth radiates beneath
Devotion's fingertips
Rhythmic heartbeats
Love's breeze
Gliding through strands of hair
♥
I lay awake
Hours
Can't seem to sleep
Your breath escapes
To dance across my soul
Your heart breaths
Inside of me
♥
I lay in thought
Little fantasies
Shivers
As my whole being stalls
Waiting for your dreams to call
Longing
Hoping
For that light brush across my head
A moment before
Your lips seek mine through the dark
♥
This inevitable kiss
Arms folding around
I've laid awake
Waiting just for this
For I can't bare to close my eyes
A moment before this nightly embrace
I don't dare sleep
Until your beloved smile
Unties those precious words
♥
This twilight game
You like to play
Emotion
Waiting
Guarded
Aching
To be released
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

I LOVE YOU!!!!!!
♥
