Back to Me

I lay awake in wonder, looking at my king. Beautiful in every way, as your back faces me. Anger is not your character, you are just full from lust the previous night. A thousand times we have been like this. I know exactly what to do just like every morning. Moving closer I press my breast against your back. This sends a charge through you which causes movement. My leg becomes a willing victim, as it wraps your body. This embrace brings soft kisses to my hand as you turn facing me. Then we meet with young smiles, saying words that stay between us. “I love you more than the world could know.” Then as our youth expires, we toss pillows and surrender to the sheets.
