Pale morning light creeps in
Its questing rays find narrow passages
Around closed curtains
And between shuttered blinds
The light is dim and the air is cool
The fan blows soothing white noise
It's peaceful here
I stretch in bed
Rejoicing in the comfort of
My warm nest of blankets
The softness of my pillow
The bliss of my bed
I greet the day and look around
At the darkened room
There you are next to me
Still lost in peaceful dreams
Your sleeping body radiates
Warmth and contentment
And like a sleeping cat
You stretch out languidly
Completely at ease
Fully asleep and relaxed
Your breathing is rhythmic and calming
I snuggle closer to this heat source
That is you
I put my back against yours
And sigh in relief
At the warm softness I find there
I can smell the essence of your clean skin
The smell of your soap, so familiar
So comforting
A smell that reminds me
Of safety, warmth, love
Because it is your smell
I drift in and out of sleep
As your warm aura envelopes me
Surrounding me
This is my favourite time of the day
Sometimes I take out my phone
Play a mindless game
Just enjoying your presence
Before I get out of bed
To face the dayand the cruel, cold world
Other times I drift back to warm dreams
Usually dreams of you
Others place such importance
On the physical side of a relationship
But I believe these moments
Are what's truly important
If I can bask in the simple joy
Of the closeness of you
The very essence of you
I'm convinced we'll last an eternity
And eternity is exactly what
I'd want to spend
As long as it's in this bed
On this morning
In the warm bubble
Of your presence

I like to write, if that makes me a writer, then rock on!
I started writing as a child because I ran out of stuff to read. So, I only write stuff that I like. If you like it too, awesome! Enjoy! ^_^
