sleep borne eyes (anli's reprise)

there are those times where sunlight sneaks above the horizon, slowly stealing carresses of night's peace as lies there in her quiet repose

and I must adore without loving
as your breathing tells a rhythm

where I loathe to reach out and touch, to erringly interrupt the times where your delights are away from the mundane - foolishly I wonder as towards you I am drawn

and as I reach to touch
with tentative fingers
fulfill what I want so much

you spasm and turn in the coils of your dreams - and I stay still in absent thought, Wondering what it is was that stole the picture perfect moment upon the canvas of my heart

so as I wait for that chance
wondering as time passes on
if it has gone and I must go
leaving you all alone

Dedication /Inspiration:
Smart woman who managed to point out various flaws to the common reader - I still apprieciate her mind, which I wonder if she apprieciates the compliment.

There's an interesting arguement about her really - the whole gender issues, life and everything. One of those people who's mental intellect dwarf what's commonly looked for in today's woman (by what standards i've found from where I stand.) ta. ;)
