  Passion Spent, Goodnight, my Love.

Passion spent,

now  just tenderness.

The light touch of your hand on my chest.

My hand,

draped over your hip touching

the soft flesh of your cheek.

Now only sleepy,

gentle love.

Passion spent, 

I sense the heat of your body

and the soft touch of your flesh

and the sweet scent of your hair,

and the last whisper I whisper

and the last whisper I hear,

"Goodnight, my love,  

goodnight."

Time of caresses wasted on sleep, the lover should have kept his eyes open, contemplating love wrapped with naked skin until his eyes ached of gratitude.
