I suppose one tends to get cheesy when one becomes enamoured by another person in such a way...I just can't help it.
***********
My lover sleeps.
Gently breathing in the smells of this room
Eyes darting below closed lids
Darting through legions of thoughts
Waging battles within
I know not his trials
I do not face his troubles
Although I do feel them…
My lover dreams.
His breath becomes heavier than before
His heart beats faster with every new image
Still foreign to me
I lightly trace one eager finger
Along the curve of his shoulder
And his neck…
My lover stirs.
Yet does not awaken
And so my vigil continues
I feel an alteration in my own breath
Which soon matches his
I want to tell him things
I want to explore the many dimensions of him
Instead, in this moment,
I lightly kiss the nape of his neck
And continue to watch him as he sleeps.
My lover is beautiful
And I wonder if I can truly know such beauty
There are echoes in my mind
Of my physical state, nakedness
I am stripped of my fears, left with my battles.
I am enamoured and on fire
As my lover sleeps peacefully.

i know this feeling well... watching someone you are very close to sleep... and they dont even know it. i can relate completely.
even though i'm not physically with him right now and i miss my boy tons

thanks for reminding me what its like to just watch him sleep, and how great it is.

Thanks for your wonderful comments, chickies.

When I wrote this I was really missing the person I wrote it about...so I know how you both feel. When you are feeling lonely like that, it seems like those moments (when it almost seemed like time froze, it was so beautiful) are the ones you look back on.
I really do miss him too.......~sigh~

Your poem has the same effect on me. It makes me miss someone very badly...why can't life be a movie so we can always have our lovers close? *sigh* Beautiful job.
