Awaken

Eyes open.

What do I see?

I see

You. Your cheek, which I kiss.

Your smile at me.

Your white hair fanned around you. Around us.

Your beautiful eyes. Warm and blue. Neverending

(I don't need anything but this.)

I feel

You. Satin skin, contained within my arms.

The weight of the blanket, weighing down on both of us.

Your breath on my chest.

(Money, power, none of it. Only you.)

Your fingers, legs, braided with my own.

Your lips on mine.

Bliss as

Eyes close.
