in bed

We’re in bed, and neither of us are willing to acknowledge
The world outside; under these covers we’ll hide, wrapped
Up in each other. We’ve blurred the lines between soul
Mates and friends; so close, I’m unsure of where your skin
Starts, and mine ends, exploring the land of a new lover.
There is a quiver, a pleasurable shiver that creeps down
My spine, as you tease me with your fingertips, taking
Your time. ‘I love you’ dribbles from your lips into my ear,
As you pull me near and hold me tight; the sun kisses the
World goodnight and here we are, in bed. Neither of us
Are willing to acknowledge the world outside, under these
Covers we’ll hide. Where better to lose a day?
