i whisper under the stars for you
i breathe your name into my pillow
i sigh upon the winds
          and hope they echo me
     into the very pores of you...

you are on my mind
it is you i long to touch
i want to hear your voice
     before i sleep
i want to see your sweet face
          when i wake
i want to reach for you
               and find you there
i need to feel the touch of you
     upon my skin--

i want to shiver
     under
          your
               fingertips...

if you were lonely
maybe we could leave here
and no one would know
at least not to where we would think so..."

When to the sessions of sweet silent thought,
I summon up remembrance of things past ...
I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought.

I won't sleep,
I can't breathe

Wonderful expression of that longing that we all feel at times.  I truely enjoyed this piece from you and the way you make it all look so simple even when I know it isn't.

Dee love, hi I managed to get to one of yours before all the others got here to steal my best lines. This is an utterly delicious piece love, truly first class. Michelangelo eat your heart out. Who needs his David, this is far superior love it really is. Didn't I always say you are the tops.
Absolutely ace, truly terrific, and I love it
Take care dear heart

*sigh*  You know I'm right there with you on this one, Gale.  Kind of makes me shiver just thinking about it. *reaching for my blanket* And no, it's NOT because it's 20 below outside.     Hope we both get what we want soon.

This is a very sweet whisper to the night..  
Being as my hands always seem ice cold, I'd have no problem with that shiver part.
