Guiltlessly slumbering in thy lover's bed is Life's true gift. <br />When I lie so close a heartbeat serves as my lullaby, <br />So near that in a swift move I could kiss your comatose body, <br />And you would never know. <br />Sweet words could be spoken to ears that are not listening, <br />All the while I influence thy dreams to be faithful to one's desires. <br />And upon awakening, the grin you receive in response to 'Good Morning' is not just a grin, <br />But a symbol of Life's greatest pleasures you'll never know about.<br /><br />Sierra Staten<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/thy-lover-s-bed/
