The Perfect Way to Fall Asleep [Part 2]

by megan   Jan 1, 2007


Every moment of silence killing me.
You say, "You want me to break up with them?"
"I will, I hope you know that."
"You mean the world to me."

I say no. I know they could give you,
A lot more than I can right now.
You deserve the world.
And that's one thing I can't give you.

You try to kiss me again,
Yet again, I turn you down.
"Why are you stopping me?" you ask
If I were you I'd be quite frustrated at the moment.

But you seem not to be.
I answer yet again "You don't want to do this."
All my strength used up I couldn't fight.
You are persistent.

All my strength drained,
You lean in to kiss me again,
This time I'm thinking it won't be a mistake,
You had to have thought about it, I made you.

As our lips touch,
Our senses heightened.
Every touch was amplified,
As the kiss continued passion soared.

As you sucked on my lip tenderly,
Your hand playfully caressed my stomach.
Not knowing this was my spot,
The one spot that drives me insane.

Passionate kisses, Caressing touches.
Playful necking, Fingers locking.
Heightened breathing, Toes curling.
Legs intertwining, Bodies meshing.

Everything calms, it's 4 a.m.
As you lay here next to me,
Arms wrapped around each other,
My last words, "It's the perfect way to fall asleep."

As you respond with a quiet "yeah.." and a beautiful smile,
I fall asleep for the first time in months.
No nightmares, no waking up scared,
Because I was there, with you.

I wake up, you're still asleep.
I kiss you on the forehead and head out of your room.
My friends already awake,
I walk out there to mingle.

Campfire chat for about 20 minutes.
You come out of your room,
As soon as we lock gazes,
I knew it wasn't a mistake to you.

You smile and look down,
As you walk to get your car keys,
Off to Sarbucks to take everyone.
Morning caffine.

As we are driving I periodically look up,
Your mirrors are looking at me.
I catch your gaze,
As we both smile and look away.

Does anybody notice?
We get back and have to say our goodbyes.
For home I must go,
I haven't been there for days.

You are the last one I hug.
Warm embrace as you whisper in my ear,
The sweet little goodbye you do.
I smile knowing I wasn't a mistake.

I drive home the happiest as can be.
Parents not knowing it was you.
Now I lay in my bed every night,
Wishing you were beside me.

We hung out day after day.
Holding hands, kissing.
Who knew it would end.
I bid farewell, it was the happiest I've had ever been.

For that one night,
I was your one.
Your one you needed to be by,
To have the perfect way to fall asleep.
