My admiration is deep
especially after we've been kissing -
while watching you sleep
I realize exactly what I've been missing.
Your eyelids flutter softly
hinting towards the subject of your dreams,
studying your expression
wondering what each movement means.
Matching my breathing
to the rise and fall of your chest,
a further connection
as I slip slowly into silent rest.
My admiration is deep
especially after we've been kissing -
while watching you sleep
I realize exactly what I've been missing.
Spooning your sweetness
enjoying just lying here hushed,
my arms around you
this relaxed state can't be rushed.
At this peaceful hour
when another day is starting new,
our two forms serene
how fortunate am I to be loved by you?
My admiration is deep
especially after we've been kissing -
while watching you sleep
I realize exactly what I've been missing.
