My love for her

your face is brighter than the sun that wakes me each morning 
ii should be yawning 
but I'm to busy yearning for your sweet touch 
your distinct smell 
swells my nostrils
ii inhale until my face turns blue 
until my pulse slows down 
and my mind is the only activity left in me 
I'll hold on to the sweet memories of yu holding me 
the way our bodies painted portraits of sunsets and shooting stars ...
your face is brighter than the sun that wakes me each morning 
blue jays sing sweet songs while we blow three jays 
in your arms ii feel safe 
so ii hold on to you 
your bright eyes guide me like the north star in the dark sky 
and ii ask why
why can't we press pause and live in this moment
right before my feet touch the cold floor 
right before my eyes open 
and all ii have is the scent of your skin 
and the warmth of our souls ... 
your face is brighter than the sun that wakes me each morning
