You finally lift the silky veil
That’s hidden your face for far too long
You let me caress all that’s soft and pale
The softness of misty clouds at dawn
The grace of a sonnet put to song
My hand exploring your every curve
A single bead of sweat shows my urge
A trembling breath my only sound
It’s a new life our hearts have found
As we slowly lie each other down
And if it’s only this nightly dream
That continues to bring you back to me
I’ll gladly sleep for eternity
