Frosted window pane —
Tracing the constellations
on your bare shoulder
Stretching the boundaries

just before sunrise
your warm breath on my neck lulls
me back into sleep

dawn is still sleeping –
the world tucked away
beyond the outermost reaches
of reality’s fingertips
with last vestiges of dreams
lingering on your lips
you turn to me,
body paralleling mine,
two concentric curves,
lovers traveling together
in the same direction
your warm breath on my neck
bridges night’s barriers
pulling me across
the lonely twilight hours
into the morning sun

limbs bare in the morning light
sketched charcoal
as they stretch against
the blush of the waking horizon
Louie croons softly
“It’s a wonderful world”
your lips whisper
against the nape of my neck
your hand gently cups my breast
as vestiges of warm dreams slip away

Dawn pettily creeps
through my window each morning
stealing precious sleep
my eyelids sewn shut
with remnants of vivid dreams
struggle to be free
last valiant effort
seizing the magic potion
I finally wake up
🙂 it’s an IV the coffee morning!
