Description
INTIMACY

I lay awake.
My head rises
Rhythmically.
Up and down,
Up and down.

My cheek feels so warm,
So secure
Against the strength of your chest.
And just for a moment, one moment,
I feel invincible to the world.

I listen itently.
To the sound of your breathing
And the beat of your heart.
As your sleep grows deeper
So does my love for you.

I gaze upon your face
And view an undescribable peacefulness.
The stress and worries of the day
Fade away
Into the oblivion of your dream-filled mutterings.

I take one last glance at you.
My lips brush yours gently-nothing sexual,
Softly, I whisper "I love you"
And safe in the knowledge that I am loved,
I turn on my side, and sleep.
