My heart

 

 

I wake to the first light of dawn filtering across the sky

The birds are singing, greeting the new day

As the fingers of light spread through the trees I think of you

The feel of your hands running through my hair

The texture of your lips against mine

The heat of your body lying next to me

My heart aches for you

Will it ever be?

 

As the sun hits its zenith high in the sky

The insects are humming, enjoying the day

The sunlight reflects off the water as I think of you

The taste of your skin as I lick you

The scent of your skin as I inhale you

The feel of your body lying next to mine

My heart yearns for you

When will it be?

 

The sun begins to set deep in the western sky

The colours reflect like jewels across the land as the birds grow silent

I look across the ocean to a place far away and think of you

The feel of your lips brushing against mine

The flexing of your muscles as you hold me tight

The comfort of your body next to mine

My heart longs for you

I need it to be

 

The darkness spreads like a velvet cloak across the ground

All is silent except for the sound of the breeze in the trees

The silver light of the moon washes over me as I think of you

The strength of your heart leaning towards me

The look of desire for me in your eyes

The sounds of your body next to mine

My heart beats for you

It will be

 

Because I love you
