In Your Arms Exhausted from a day Both stubborn and long I come to you Weary And older than my days I lay my head upon you Close my eyes And welcome myself home. The rhythm of your breathing Caresses my soul Your scent, warm and delicate Wraps around me And whispers I love you Your heartbeat carries me Toward that secret realm Of memories and dreams. You reach for me Silently A fingertip brushes against my lashes A thumb sighs across my cheek A touch as soft as your love. Without a word, you say goodnight And I fall gently to sleep In your arms. |

Trew, Sigh . . . this was breath taking. Truly beautiful and devoted writing. She is one lucky lady my friend. Excellent writing. Lone Wolf Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

Thanks so much everyone! This poem just kind of poured itself out onto the paper. The easiest, I think, I have ever written. I agree with all of you that everyone needs to feel this kind of love and even those who do, sometimes don't realize it. Oh, and Lone Wolf, I am the lucky one. Thanks for responding everybody, it means a lot! |

Exquisit writing. To be able to come home to this would be sheer delight. You have penned a beauty with this one. |
