I spoke to you in lover's breath
like a languid fingertip caress.
I whispered words so soft and low
I talked of dreams, you only know.

I watched the moonlight kiss your lips
then traced them with my fingertips.
Bestowed on you an angel's kiss
your face moved as you dreamed of this.

I heard your quiet sounds of sleep
tiny rumbles low and deep.
Knew not the secrets that you keep
in corners where your soul does creep.

I prayed you'd open up your eyes
the place I know your sweet soul lies.
The source of every tear it cries
and every humor that it spies.

In dreams I thought you would not hear
my quiet plea, my words of fear.
In sleep you simply wiped my tear
and turned and pulled my body near.

Remember me with a smile on your face, or please don't remember me at all.

To think I almost missed this.  Beautiful.

See what nice things happen when you don't dip

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.

*big sighs* I adore this! geesh!  

Your storm of assumption feeds anger I am calm enough to hold inside. Don't pretend to know me if you've never put stretched out your heart with since
