Under My Sheets

On  my  majestic  king sized  bed, 
Lies  the  ultra  soft  microfleece  sheets, 
Velvety soft  and  silky smooth  to  touch, 
Sliding  in  it  seamlessly  draws in  somnolence,
Consequently  closing  the  sheets  like  petals. 

In  the  cold  comatose  mornings, 
Just  as  the  sheets  open  to  kiss  the  sunlight, 
Your  ambrosial  minty  bouquet  permeates  out, 
Always  raising  the  hairs  at  the  back of  my neck, 
Leaving  my warm  skin with  mountainous  goosebumps.

Untold  epic  stories  are  sedimented  beneath the  sheets, 
A narration  of  our  sleepless  nights  of passion, 
Soaking  the  sheets  with  salty  sweat, 
Divine  that  we  never  felt  the  urge  to  leave, 
Opting to  cuddle,  all snug  and  warm. 

Under my sheets, 
Lies  an out  of  bounds  modern palace, 
Sanctioned  by  an  angelic  epitome of beauty, 
Her  presence  breathes  life  into  it, 
An invaluable  treasure  perches  in my bed.
