I remember that morning Your sprawl next to me Your face obscured by the pillows Too many pillows to count Scattered across that too big bed While we occupied only the prime real estate Center stage Tracing a line down your spine Thinking For this moment This is mine Suddenly over you roll Your eyes intent and locked on me We gravitate into each others' space I could feel the magnetic pull Arms twined Legs vined Torsos pulled so tightly together That I swore For a moment We occupied the same sphere I passed through you You passed through me I achingly loosened my hold It felt as though each rib popped free Taking you on your journey Next to and far away from me
