Nights Together-Mornings Together
NIGHTS TOGETHER – MORNINGS TOGETHER
As, I look a little closer, just to be sure
I write to you before any sun protrudes
from nights velvet shroud
I move across your thoughts, unknown to you, yet familiar
Unrevealed in presence, I press upon you
in spirit, silently I trace the echoes of your heart beat
its words soft and sweet
in the distance, sound fades, with morning’s light
An angel watches over you in mid–heaven
awake as I hear you breathing
it lingers on my skin
soft and warm
Reminding me of the first
time we spent the night
I hear the morning sounds
opening my eyes to you
You do not move
these ubiquitous sounds
are unable to penetrate
your dreams
I lay my head on your chest
and pull the covers over my head
I can still hear
your breathing
