Sleeping Alone
I am completely naked in your embrace,
my figure shapes your body.
You run down my skin
taking the shape of my curves.
I sink my face in your cotton locks
taking in my scent.
I pull you over me
your warmth kisses my body,
a high sense of pleasure,
but I still feel cold and low.
My arms snake through your sheets
to the empty cold area next to me.
My fingers trace the crinkles formed
like goosebumps on smooth skin.
I wrap my arms around me
a lonely shell with one thought,
thinking,
where are you?
Stranger I have never met
Or, will never meet
Leaving me to sleep
and make love,
alone,
to this bed.
