late at night when the moon is hanging high in the sky & the stars luminescence gently caresses your face
i watch you sleep
in the silence of the room where only the silence of your breath can be heard
it is there i watch you while we lay our limbs entwined like ivy vines i allow my hand to forbiddingly touch your face tracing the suppleness of your brown lips that carry the kiss i wish to savor like fine wine
while we sleep we become entangled in a web of sheets and satin skin while your arms bearing the strength of Sampson cradle me gently & pull me close my chin rests in the cook of your neck where i can smell the scent of your sweet air i close my eyes hold you & kiss you there til morning comes when you have to leave me once more
