Slipping Away
You and i had
Sipped away
To enjoy the remainder
Of that long day
Gasped at the cold
Of the icy sheet
Then at the shock
As two bodies meet
And at long last
We start to feed
The hunger of that
Long suppressed need.
Each feeling the beat
Of the other’s heart
Until at last
We slip apart
To fall into
The arms of deep
And much needed
Satisfying sleep
When i awake
And you’re still there
I realise that
I just don’t care
Of the problems
That may lie ahead
Of your unused room
And empty bed.
At last you and i
Had slipped away
To enjoy the remains
Of that special day.
