"Breathe"
The morning sun
shines brightly
illuminating
your beautiful contours
The former melancholy
of secret night and her
hidden devotions and
unknown desires
best left undisturbed
has faded
You gaze on me
so longingly
with those eyes
your lovely eyes
Lying in bed
with you
skin against skin
our bodies intertwined
your warmth is intoxicating
Your breath on my neck
pressed up against you
I can feel your heart beat
hard as a drum
I need you
like the sun needs the moon
and the stars need the
perfect expanse of sky
I could live a thousand years
and yet, I would never find
another one as beautiful as
you are to me
You've become the air
I so desperately long
to breathe.
