Bedtime Wants

This came to my mind today
Once the first line happened - I went with it - allowing it to play out before me
Inevitably my brain took off and I found myself having to write it down to give it life
I don't know who she is or who he is for that matter maybe one day I'll write a story about them
Then we will all go on this journey together
But for now this is Bedtime Wants, hope you enjoy!

Bedtime Wants
I want you to know that I am here for you and only you for as long as we both shall live
I want you to know that I will never love another the way I love you, there will never be another
I want you to feel my smile through my eyes and know that it is sincere and honest
I want you to be open and trust me, more than you ever have before
I want you to know I won’t judge or harm you
I want to stare into your eyes until I can see no longer
I want to breathe you in like the air around me
I want to feel you like a warm sweater
I want to wrap around you like a koala would a eucalyptus tree when you’re sad
I want to hear you whistle in amazement like the sound of a harmonica
I want to hold you at night when you feel lost
I want to lay down with you just to feel the heat from your body
I want to stroke your hair lightly to brush your worries away
I want to run my hand through your chest hair, letting it get lost in there
I want to watch your fingers play the instrument
I want you to strum me like you would a guitar
I want to trace you like a finger would on a map of mountains
I want you to tell stories from your past until sleep takes us both over
I want to dream of you at night even though you’re within arm’s reach
I want you to close your eyes peacefully, knowing that I will forever be by your side
This is my love and lust
