I love this poem...and someday...
it will happen for me.
****************************************************
This morning I woke up
to daylight creeping across the night sky...
to stars blinking sleepily while drifting into dreams...
to the moon quickly kissing her sun awake
before melting into the skyline
to vigilantly watch their snoozing star children sleep---
drowsily I witnessed it all in disorientation
through the pixies' dust that flittered prettily
as they scampered away from the dawn,
before I roused myself fully awake...
shaking off sleep like my tangled sheets
as I stretched my arms to let my body reach and breathe
and the first thing I feel is you...
skin hot and breathing heavy,
lips parted sweetly...
seemingly kissing the billowy pillows,
laying with your arm strewn lazily
against my hip and thigh---
I watched as innocence and happiness
gleamed across your face
as you slightly sighed at beautiful sights
in your dreams...
---And I saw Love---
greater and mightier than I had ever seen it,
spreading quickly and blooming in my veins,
surging from my heart,
fluttering in my stomach,
and singing in my brain...
yes...I knew it was love---
this way that only you can make me feel,
this person that I can be only when with you,
these dreams that you construct with me,
this force that only we can create and share
is all summed up in one puny powerful word-
***LOVE***
This morning I woke up
anxious and jubilant,
rehearsing my promises in my head
and whispering verses under my breath
while I sat and gazed at your beauteous face-
hardly able to wait to get to the church
so I can announce this love for you
before God, family, and friends
and join with you
my love and life undeniably.
Ever yours...
ever mine...
forever...
I love you.
