Paphian Mornings

** Image ID #1831736 Unavailable **

I watch the dawn caress your face
as I lay by your side.
It wraps you in its warm embrace
as my heart swells with pride.

I lay there basking in the love
that's only shared by two.
Each day I thank the stars above
for guiding me to you.

I reach and brush your sleeping eyes
with a good morning kiss.
You smile, though it is no surprise
as we enjoy our bliss.

You stretch and wrap me in your arms,
your skin warm to my touch,
displaying all your worldly charms.
You love to tease so much.

This time, however, there's a glint
of mischief in your smile.
It's more than just a passing hint
that I should stay a while.

Excitement builds as we explore
the ways we know so well.
Though we have been this way before
we feel our passions swell.

We celebrate in love's union
what words cannot express,
then lie in silent communion
with smiles we can't repress.

The world returns, we cannot stay.
There's much we need to do.
Reluctantly, we move away ...
"Good morning. I love you."
