MEMORIES

I miss those lazy quiet days
When I would lie in your arms
Cuddle close to you
Close my eyes and let myself go.

I miss the late mornings
When you would turn
Put your leg on my leg
Embrace me with your warmth
Kiss my cheek
And whisper you’re husky good morning.

I miss watching movies together
My head on your chest
You stroking my hair
As I stoke your torso.

I miss the precious moments
The kisses before I leave for work
The kiss when I get back
The kiss on my forehead
Your bushy beard
Brushing against my cheek.

I miss watching you
Cooking in the kitchen
As I lazily instruct you
Laugh at your know it all expression
And that sweet naughty look.

Every night before I go to sleep
I close my eyes and smell you’re sent
I imagine you kissing me tenderly
Slowly, making love to me.
As I dream of you
Knowing that as the sunsets and tomorrow the sun rises
I am another day closer to being with you again.
