Oh This Tenderness

Oh this tenderness 
The beauty of you amazes me
As I undress in the sun
Shining through the window
Curtains fluttering in the breeze
This Spanish villas part of me

Your eyes as slender 
As an irresistible lover
Watching the silk fall from my hips
Taking me in your arms as this
Is bliss

Years we have waited
To meet once more
Thousands of hours
Hundreds of days
A million thoughts have kept you alive 
In my head
Turning over all that was said
Tiny snippets of memory kept me in this eternity 
Needing you back with me

Now the dream is reality
Undress in front of me
Lay upon my body
This warm familiarity 
Heavenly
I have acted this out in my mind
A million times
Lightening flashes inside of me
Then hush

If only I knew before 
Life after death was
As this
