sleeping next to you,
your breath tickling my shoulder,
my head spun and my heart grew,
as the night got colder.
a twist of legs, a heavy sigh,
a smile set in morning sun.
waking up by your side
was like a prize i had won.
at last,
the boy i pined after was mine.
but my bliss went missing soon,
and though the morning had been fine,
he was gone by afternoon.

The most precious time of all to me
Is the space between those kisses.
When my lips linger over your lips
And our foreheads are pressed together
And I can't help but close my eyes
As I listen to you breathe.
