from His pen…

Watching Her Sleep

With a whispered sigh she called my name
Missing me at her side as she slept.
I sit here watching her and waiting.
Silent and dumbstruck by her beauty.
How could I have deserved her,
A beautiful siren calling me.
That voice a soft temptation
Just begging for me to give in.
Yet how can I do that and remain
Unchanged, untouched, and free.
Do I give into lust, to love?
Do I surrender my heart and soul?
Oh how much I'd love to do that,
To give into this creature of desire.
This phantom of all my dreams
All my fantasies and hopes.
How badly I want to caress
To trace the curve of your cheek.
To feel your warmth under me,
Your presence once again in my arms.
Sleep sweet angel till mornings kiss
So that I might find myself.
Might discover the truth in my heart
And the source of my soul's desire.
