a while
take shelter
in my arms
drowse easily
upon my chest
and take comfort
in the steady beating
of my heart
reverberating
through your head
while it shouts
as softly as a whisper
of eternal love
defying reason
challenging perception
demanding no explanation
but only the
sensation
of your silken hair
sliding
through my fingers
and the spark
of your lips
pressed against mine
rest with me a while
or better still
stay forever
