Shh Whisper


Hold me in the darkness
where the moonlight paints
faint shadows of sweet kisses
across  my silhouette 
and the evening breeze
weaves softly through my hair 

Ease my restless spirit
with caresses gently brushed
against my skin,
let your heartbeat be your song
and sing me lullabies
to sooth my weary soul.
     
Speak not a word,
just a whisper of a breath
against my face,
as your lips lay down a trail 
in voiceless language,
and I will hear you
with my heart.
