Breathlessly

Like a sigh between heart beats
you breathe,
and I long for the next breath
to be on my cheek,
my lips,
mingling with my own,
sharing the heat,
the rhythm,
the passionate cries of mine.
Like a sigh between heart beats
you breathe again, asleep . . .
and I wait –
I wait,
breathlessly.

This brought a smile to me...
Words are unnecessary.
Merry Christmas.

After reading it twice i imagined someone looking at his wife sleep just looking and wondering, with all the thoughts of the world.

Smile and happy holidays
