This Is A Very True Confession
Just before I wake
I feel warmth upon my face
of the sun
streaming in from above.
I lay there
dreaming of your embrace,
basking in the afterglow of love.
Sweet aroma of our
special mingled scents
fills the morning air
like it's the present tense.
Delicious tastes of you
linger on my lips,
still sense the feel of you
upon my fingertips.
The warm sensation
when you whisper in my ear,
tender strength of your arms
when you pull me near.
Loving touch of your hands
when you hold me, oh so tight.
Your body's caring circle
envelopes me through the night.
My eyes open slowly,
reality returns.
The crash took you forever.
My heart begins to burn.
But, just before I wake
I feel warmth upon my face
of the sun
streaming in from above.
I lay there
still dreaming of your embrace,
basking in the afterglow of love.
