6/24/13

Laying in your arms at night

Feeling so safe

All worries out of sight

The smell of your skin

Collecting between us

The rhythm of your heart

A metronome timing my sleep

Your arm wrapped tight

Our legs mingling out of sight

Under the blankets

Where we lay

With the moon shining through the window

Only memories, though

And that's good enough for now.
