I Quietly Stand

Under you

I quietly stand 

as

You rain down on me

With such a demand.  

                             

The heat of you

Warms me. 

Eyes closed

As you caress 

My very soul. 

                             

The chills of last night

Wash away

As there I stand. 

Lost 

in another

Land. 

                             

Through my fingers

And 

out of my hands

You splash. 

To fast for me 

To catch. 

Eyes closed to 

                               

The world 

As over my 

face you pass. 

I slip out 

My tongue. 

And take you in. 

I can't tell where you

end 

and 

where I begin. 

Oh, sweet bliss. 

Standing here 

Under you

Forever 

Is my only 

Wish.
