Glancing at you from across the room
my hands sweat~ my body shivers
I long to feel your touch~to smell your skin
Our eyes meet and all I can do is smile
and look away

My eyes rush to meet you again
pulled towards yours like magnets
and as your eyes meet mine once more


I quickly close mine
I breathe in softly ~ my head back and eyes shut
the only way to clearly remember the feel of your
lips against mine ~ your breath on my skin
your hands on my body
I tremble thinking of you
And I sing our song in my mind


I have waited a lifetime for you
Come warm me in your cloud of dreams
I want to hold you ~ to touch you ~ to feel
the gentle sweetness of your love
I want to smell you ~ whisper to you~ caress you
to desire you ~ to need you
like a flower needs morning dew


As I lay next to you oblivious
your skin brushes mine
~ And I sing our song
In the serenity of your love ~
