The Keeper of My Love

Slipping softly
Between the sheets.
I feel the softness
Of your back
As my arms curl themselves
Around your waist.
My head burrows in
To nestle "that" spot
At the base of your neck.
I breathe you in...
The scent of love
Tickles my nose
As my legs form
A perfect union
Intertwined with yours.
Content at last
I sleep,
Knowing I hold in my arms
The keeper
Of my love.
