beside me tonight
wrapped in my arms
softly caressing your shoulders
so much you had in the day
i want you
to feel my reassuring touch
keeping you
away from the night's unrest
let you feel comfort
snuggle in my breath
i'll run my fingers thru your hair
blowing swift kisses
your face...tired but meek
sleepy eyes that saw too much
now glistens
of pain? hope? tears?
let me kiss them now
as they close...a few moments
of nothingness...just
rest, at peace, know i am
beside you
watch over you a few moments
as you sleep
let me watch you dream
see you smile as you do
let the lines around your lips
that formed in frowns, now show
up in gladness
soft and supple lips that i so long for
to touch with mine
whisper them my love
as they, yours and mine
touch
i want these few hours
shared
between us become
a lasting remembrance
of how all shadows cast
fears, doubts and unfulfilled longing
vanish for but a few
moments, made eternal as they
tho marked on parched memories
will stay...untouched
remains, forever
