fingertips

Just the light brush of your fingertips

right in the morning light

was all I needed to know

that it was just the right time

just the time to smile

cuddling closer into you

so very warm and sweet

after a long night's dreams

That was all that was done

just a light brushing of your fingers

so simple and so freeing all in one

the pleasant caress of your fingers against my skin

made me happy to know i was wanted again

you would pull me in close

my head on your chest

then only to resume dreaming

we would continue our rest

how i will miss these moments

with you so close by

you were so understanding

i never thought you one to lie

then it was over like a fleeting dream

a dream that ended like a nightmarish fiend

you were so unique to me

everything you did just right

you will never understand how you touched me

with you fingertips in the morning light
