Bleary. Tired.
I want to feel you
Wrap around me tightly.
I want to feel your heavy arms
Press against the skin of my torso
And your hushing breath against my ear.
Wipe away my tears and tell me that I’ve conquered
The world; tell me that I can relax in our sheets and
That I may close my eyes. Protect me from the
Monsters that strive to pull me down.
Entangle your fingers with mine;
Kiss my temple and say that
For my next mission,
All I need to do is
To feel you.
