Each morning I wake hoping to hear your voice.
A smile forms across my face as I feel the warmth of your skin against mine.
As you lay there asleep my mind wanders into the events from the night before.
Every moment, every touch, every kiss.
You turn over and place your hand in mine as you kiss my neck.
Without a word you say "Good morning beautiful."
We lay in bed, no need to speak, the silence says it all.
Time goes by without so much as a whisper and slowly the rising sun peeks through the window.
Neither one of us wants to let go.
We cling to each other hoping that time will pause if we just wish hard enough.
But it doesn't and I slowly roll to get out of bed.
The cold first catches my feet and I sneak back under the covers as you tug my arm.
Not just yet.
I give you a kiss before I lay my head on your chest.
I can hear your heart beat and to me it is the most beautiful sound ever.
Some more time goes by and I search for my clothes with only my eyes, I don't want to leave your side yet.
A peaceful moment in a crazy world.
One more kiss before I get dressed.
You lay there in the bed smiling.
As I am about to leave you remind me that I forgot something.
I sit on the side of the bed and you pull me in close.
Brushing your hand across my face you kiss my forehead.
Staring deep into my eyes you say "You're beautiful" and once more I am out the door.
