You lay beside me as I lie awake
your breathing so soft
your body so warm.
I long to wake you
just to take you once again.
Your presence has dulled the aching
when you're around
it seems as if you're some lost part
that dropped away long ago.
You complete me
make me whole.
I once longed, for your mind to know
but soon realized, I had no further to go
than the depths of my soul.
Your special smile
that only I get to see
can clear the blackest clouds from my mind
it quiets the turmoil in my soul.
All the faith you place in me
the beauty you claim to see
nearly breaks me.
Your love climbs over my walls
sneaks past my shields
and makes me weak.
You stand beside me
when all else has fallen away
and I'm surrounded by ruin.
You shake me
scream at me
until I believe in myself once more.
Everytime I can make you laugh or smile
as I turn the sadness away
I wish to gloat and the storm inside me breaks
and the sun begins to shine.
The noises you make when we're together
make me ache with pleasure.
As your body contracts around me
my breath leaves with a gasp.
As I hold you and warmth overtakes me
I long to never do anything else.
The love I feel for you
burns me with it's strength
even as I yearn for more.
With thoughts of you in my mind
I am filled with serenity
and am freed of my anguish
as my eyes begin to close
your scent in my nose
I slip away.
