Dawn Dreaming

 

Prior commitments

Stole you away early

As dawn was peeping

Into my bedroom.

I rolled over to lay

In the lingering warmth

Of your missing body,

My hair now absorbing

Faint traces of cologne

Left on your pillow.

Dozing sleep toys with

My imagination

As sexual fantasies

Must awaken

To an empty room.

Snuggling deeper

Into blankets and down pillows,

I savor the sweetness

Of the precious hours

We've spent in intimacy,

Arms and legs draped

About each other,

And hope you won't

Stay away too long.
