Interlude

By kiss of the dark



Morning casts its soft glow
On my lavender sheets
Creating ripples made of
The sun's tongue



Your long arms
Preciously cradle me
Underneath the comforter
And in this moment
I realize that
My pain is gone



Turning over to see your
Dark cherub face
Your breath lightly lands
On my cheeks
And I feel your warmth



Dove-like grace
Encumbers you
And me
As this morning unfolds
Into a romantic interlude



Whispers released
I serenade you during
Your sweet slumber
Your eyes part
Like the red sea
And I see your magnificent
Jade majesty



Glowing almost
Sparkling with awe
Your eyes withold my breath
And I see for the first time
Beauty
In its original state



Cathartic warmness
Hindering a secret
Within your
Closed perfect mouth



Begging for your
Voice to release
A timely
Yet frightening stanza
That reveals to me the truth...



"I love you..."



Light words
Caress my face
And seep into my lungs
Capturing my heart
Causing it to swell
