rest & rise

What time do you go to bed and wake up currently?

As the sun peeks over the horizon

I open my eyes and think of you

I turn to see you sleeping

Chestnut lids covering dark brown eyes

That look in to mine with passion ablaze

Surely I dreamt of you while sleeping by your side

Hands clasped between our thighs.

I pass the day with sweet nothings and forget me nots

Forging my own path with joy and liberty

And as I lay down to sleep late in the midnight hour

My head on your chest finds rest

Feels so blessed to know you when I rise.
