I awake,
Warm and sheltered
Tangled in the sheets… and you.
Sweet breath’s feathers cross my skin
Still damp
With passion’s dew.
I awake,
From soothing dreams
Cocooned in your embrace.
No thought to leave this heaven of
Bodies entwined
In one small space.
I awake,
Sated… nestled
Your hand upon my breast – divine!
Saturated with your scent.
Wondering
Which legs are mine.
I awake,
With sultry smile
Remembering short hours past.
Moans – sighs – spent thighs
Understanding
Dawns at last.
I awake,
To your caress
Fire stirring – no lust can slake.
I have slept through life ere now
But with your love…
I awake.

Awwe.. if I only knew the feeling of waking up next to the one I love being tangled up in them. But, sadly, I dont know that feeling.. Great write and great description.

Must be nice to find someone that actually loves you back, I have loved one guy for over 4 yrs now, he doesn't want to hurt me or something, although him going out with other girls and messing around with me when he's single is killing me.
