All in Missing You Krissie S. Lost in cool sleep, Falling through a cotton sky. And wrapped in the shadows of slumber, Your face appears. My cheek burning beneath your hand. Brushing my lips against your neck, Just a dream, but vaguely farmiliar... Maybe we met here before? Underneath the wings of worlds broken off from reality, Among the stardust tears. Where longing takes shape, Here in my cotton dream. Where that aching need never seemed so real, Here in that wanted lover's arms. The ache is worse... As I wish to kiss you forever, Having never kissed you at all. And I cannot kiss you now, For that kiss may mark the end of your loving me. I always wake when your lips meet mine. I crave just being near to you. So an eternity, an hour... As long as it's with you. But those blue eyes tell me you'll always be near. Just to watch you lick your lips. Causes me to part mine, In eager anticipation of being near you as lips allow. And in taking my hand I feel so warm and protected. Those hands on my back say you'll never leave me. Your breath on my neck says forever starts right now. And your kiss... Is sadly one of goodbye. Now morning is slowly coaxing me back through the cotton sky. And weary eyes register the beams of light pouring in, Spoiling my kiss. I raise a finger to my lips and touch what you touched. There in my cotton dream... But there be no place for sadness here. Maybe a little heartache. It can't be helped in missing you. Night will fall, And slices of moon will count the days that we are together. When cotton sheets, make cotton dreams. And hands fold into each other. As we meet once more, My first time with you a thousand times over. Each better than the last. As we meet, Our lips touch again... |
