baby lie with me
with your hand
beneath my back
your gentle fingertips tracing
the outline of my ribs on my
bare chest

i've got my hand on
your chest
i can feel each
heartbeat,
your heart fluttering gently like
a caged butterfly

the sun melts
slowly
like watercolour behind the hills
and we continue
to lie
there
just the two of
us

there was no
tomorrow
only the
moment
of the
night
