Caress
After a long day
There’s only one thing I desire
That’s your sweet caress
To set my cheek afire…
Your fingertips on my skin
Your palm on my cheek
Makes me relaxed
To the point I can’t speak…
The closeness of you
The smell of your cologne
Is something I long for
When we are alone…
When it gets dark
& I’m lying in your arms
I feel safety
As you protect me from harm…
Before we fall asleep
As we turn out the light
I place your hand on my face
So I can feel your caress all night…
