Naked and In Love

It is 8:52 when I wake
Still in your firm hold
I roll over
To see you staring at me
Your eyes
Are unusually placid and at ease

I lean close
Soaking up your love and warmth
As I rest my head on your chest
Listening to the soft thumps of your heart
Watching your chest rise and fall

We don't say a word
We hide behind layers of blankets
Allowing it to shield us from the real world
The sunlight sparkles through the window
Revealing a cloudless sky

We stay like this for the rest of the day
We let the morning last all day
Naked and in love
As we should be
