The Honeymoon

Soon I will wake up again

to the day I next see you

Like an old fashioned photograph

this day will be tinted a sunny rose

Making everything look like a summer's afternoon

 

Soon I will step out of this bed

and into your arms

I'll stretch pastel roses across your shoulder's skin

with a touch of peach pinching our tongues

We will watch the sun set

 

And as this sun says goodbye

the stars rise from their daylight slumber

Cold will seep through the soil, climbing the blades of grass

to tickle the soles of our bare skinned toes

And off are we to begin our own solid slumber

 

Only to find, that soon we will wake up again.
