愛

i’m drowning in shallow water

laying there face down

i know

that i could just get up

but i don’t have the strength

now

with the last force i posess

i raise my hand ro reach out

and hope

My day was long and all I want

is to be held by you.

Can I rest my head upon your chest?

I want to listen to your heartbeat till mine

beats in time with yours.

Can I have a forehead kiss, my love?

Ease the worries of my day away

with a whisper of your lips.

Can we curl up beneath the sheets, my love?

Hold me close and let me sleep

to my comfort that‘s all you.

-

There is a delicate place behind my ear that your lips love to caress.

There is a finesse to the way you fingers play on my nape, safe, soft ringlets fall, where your eyes love to repose.

There is a curve at the base of my neck your nose likes to bury itself in.

There is a place between my breasts where your ear likes to rest.

There is a mole at the end of my spine your fingers adore. 

Places only you know, 

Places where you have left your mark, 

Places that belong to you as much as they are mine.
