Unspoken

I wake encased in arms so strong
a heart beating beneath my cheek.
I am tempted to sneak a peek,
though feeling right where I belong.
From the night, clothes strewn all along
the room and on every antique.
No time for words, no need to speak
as we made love to one last
 song.

He stirs, and greets me with a smile.
Unspoken words from yesterday
floating in the crisp morning air.
They'll stay unspoken for a while,
as we both chase the chill away.
Our bodies and our hearts we bare.

Yes, click the "Edit" link next to the title of your poem under your "My Poems" page; also, your "My Poems" link is immediately beneath the "Members Area" column on the home page. Good Luck! Ngoc. :-D

Looks like your meter is somewhat irregular; still, a very nice effort overall. Thanks for a pleasant read!

You are right! I did not catch that. Is there a way to edit it?
