If I was asked what is my favourite day would be
I have two I would reply
Saturday and Sunday
And it would be said without hesitation
For these are the days I like to wake before you
Just so I can watch you sleep a while
And wonder what you are dreaming
For there are all the days in between
when I have no time to linger
To take time to appreciate your beauty
So here I lie with my head on my pillow facing you
Trying not to move
As your arm is draped across my belly
I do not want to disturb you
So I lie perfectly still
Whilst I with photographic eye
I capture your image to hang in the darkroom of my mind
For those times when we are apart and you are working through the night
Sometimes you pretend to be sleep
Don’t think I don’t know
But the corners of your mouth begin to smile
Give the game away
Yet you allow me to take you all in
And when I am done
With your eyes still shut
You whisper in my ear
Morning
l says it back
And with eyes closed we lie face to face
Because on days like this we can linger

Silhouettes are not required tonight …
Tonight I need your touch
I want to witness the love that stares
back at me
No pieces of shadows do I want to see
dancing on the wall in rhythmic formation
For silhouettes are not required tonight
Tonight I want our love to be surround by light
Where the soft hue outlines your beauty
In all its wondrous sublimity
Tonight I want our love to be shared amidst
The dimmed lights

Your body is the verse…
Your body is the verse
To which I serenade
Under the moonlight skies
Your body is the verse
I adore
With its sweet melody
It rocks me
Your body is the verse
your tune
your humming
makes me want to dance to its rhythm
and join in the chorus and sing out loud
Your body is the verse
that holds me in my sleep

Horizontal Love…
Hands locked
Fingertips touch
Eyes stare gaze fixed
Parched lips kissed
Redundant hand I caress you
Wanting tongue I explore you
In horizontal love

Girls with no names…
I was never the settling down type
I didn’t buy the whole relationship thing
I didn’t believe in all the hype
I played the field
I kissed so many girls with no names
Broke so many hearts
to my shame
But non were ever good enough to last
And so quickly I moved on
Until there was you
Now I see myself growing old with you
As for the whole relationship thing
I’d say our matching rings say everything
Never again with there be anymore with no name
That was in the past
For your name is tattoo on my heart
I promise never to break your heart
Because I love only you
Sex…
Sex
This is what I want to share with you
To have your naked body
Lie with mine
Mouth
Hands
Fingers
I need to feel your touch
To be skin on skin with you
Until our bodies lie entwined
All of you
I want to rediscover the parts of you
I have missed so much
To let my senses get high on you
Complete
And when we are both satisfied
Unware there is anything
other than the space we now occupy
I want us to lie there face to face
With our gaze locked
So to feel the emotional connection
Of the intimacy we have just shared

Words are everywhere…
I carry words around with me in my head
And in the back pockets of my jeans
Words I’ve written of when I think about you
I have words on bits of paper hiding
in journals on the table at the side of our bed
I find words in the pockets of my jackets
In book I’m reading
And in books I have read
Words I’ve written whilst I’m at work
When I’m day dreaming of you
Random words that lie dormant
in the draws of my desk
Words full of such emotion
And expressions of deep rooted feeling’s
But there’s only one word
The truest word
That says what I will always feel about you
This word I carry in my heart
The word is LOVE
