"AS YOU SLEPT"

As you slept
I gazed

I gazed
at your complexion

Your skin is so smooth
I could almost taste it again
As I had moments ago

The taste of you makes
more than just my mouth
water

One hand caresses your head
while the other strokes your hair
with it's fingers

Your eyes even while closed
penetrate through my soul

Your lips seem to call me
to kiss them

But I won't disturb your sleep
I used to worry about tomorrow

I guess now
I'm just enjoying
the time of NOW

And that is why
As you slept
I gazed
