POEM OF THE DAY

Your body tangled in mine.

By Melody Long

 

I wake to find myself drenched in sweat.

Your body tangled in mine.

As much as I long for sleep this is, soo much better.

For so long we have both waited for just this night.

Waiting to make love, waiting to fall asleep in each others arms.

Now I lay here and watch you sleep.

Careful not to move too much lest I wake you.

Fearful this is dream.

As long as you have been gone my heart has dreamt of this day

Each time it has broken when I wake to find you still gone.

This time I lean to kiss you and I don't wake up.

Instead, your arms wrap around me and you pull me on top of you.

Today, you finally came home.
