She comes to me in the night
after I am asleep,
full of tiredness herself,
after a long day
and lays down beside me...
after she has washed off her face
and curls up around me;
I feel her warmth and softness
and reaching around to touch her
let her know I am reassured she is home;
soon she is asleep and we reverse
when I sense her rhythms have changed
and it is I who is curled around her
and it is I who lays his head against her back,
reaching our around her,
cupping her breasts as best as I can
every so gently and we
sleep in this position until
the clock's alarm breaks us apart.
