PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I feel the hot sand on my back

as we lie under the stars



you close your eyes and fall asleep

and I carry you to the car



I look at you while I drive home

and I can't help but smile



I don't want the moment to end

so I drive an extra mile



I drive up to your house

and I just sit and stare



I reach out and touch your cheek

and I push away your blonde hair



You wake up and look at me

with your beautiful blue eyes



you smile and pretend to fall asleep

and I look at you and smile, letting out a sigh



I know that you're awake

but i decide to play along



so I carry you to your room

singing a soft song



I see the smile on your face

but I act like I don't know



I lie you down softly

but you won't let me go



so I hold you tight and whisper

I love you in your ear



You smile and whisper it back

and I break into tears

because those are the three words

I have waited a lifetime to hear
