Waiting

Waiting frustrates and excites
Come home with me and spend the night
Sensate my being I implore
Exhausted I sigh, please, no more
Cuddle next to me, let me feel your skin
Breathe softly, my dear, in our lover’s den

Deep sleep overcomes, your breaths less shallow now
Drift off with me, your worries disavow
I will comfort you till you see light again
Your head on my chest caressing my chin
Time moves quickly as we lay as one
Begging the night to delay the sun

Morning arrives, I still feel your touch
Your presence confirms why I love you so much
Repose with me just a minute longer
My love for you can’t be any stronger
You dress and leave quietly, I feel alone
Till you return next time I await by the phone

Waiting suspends time and leaves me cold
My emotions frozen till you’re in my hold
A moment defined by your absence endured
Fragmented thoughts tempt and allure
I pray for your coming to stay for good
Night and day no longer misunderstood

Keith, when one is in love...nothing is misunderstood. Whether in the light of day or the dark of night...all is right.
Excellent write Keith.
