at their posts fast asleep
undetected in you slip
resurrecting an alien dream
defenseless is this state I'm in
things kept in check by day
seeping from an unguarded heart
you erode them slowly away
moonlight through the window
a kiss on moistened lips
hands that elicit passion
all that I have missed
stirring softly, moans escape
continuing without demands
eyes can't see behind the lids
closed tightly to hold this in
the sun arrives and I open my eyes
wonder takes its place
not a dream, you are next to me
a smile graces your sleeping face
