We sleep alone, me in my bed,
and you, dear one, inside your head.
Or do you, Love, in the night
cuddle close, warm and tight
beside his form with the thought
that he alone is all you’ve got?
Or do you, precious one of mine,
lay awake until the time
you have me near, when in a heap,
you truly rest and fall asleep?

nice read
Heather (aka CherokeeGirl)

Without the experiance of love where would we be? We would have no memories to cherish.
With love it brings hurt with hurt bittersweet memories.

Uh Oh!!! This flirts with the mind! I would like to hear her answer. But then (Blush!) I better go for now.....before I get too nosy!   Very nicely subjective and seductive.

lying here I get no rest
wanting only
my head upon your chest
held safely
to your side
where my soul
does abide
no sweet dreams
this whole night through
cause I just can't sleep
without you..........

Oh my yes...gee, I read Susan's response and forgot what I was going to say...  
Good writing...made me think.  ~Nancy~

So that you won't ever forget me.~

in a heap, where you truly rest and fall asleep.

yes, we do rest better when in the arms of real love.

Poetic verse nestled in the warmth of my heart, reveals the sweet yearnings of my soul....
