Love Poem #48

Before I Sleep
by Veronica Lynn Aldrete

I lay in bed:
with thoughts of you in my head::

And in the middle of the night:
I awake wishing you were here
holding me tight::

Every night I wish upon the stars
above:
That in my dreams we will be making
love::

I adore your gentle touch:
And I love you so very much::

I wanna feel your hands on my lips:
Every time we are about to kiss::

I wish you were here:
Because I need you near:
Holding back all my fear::
