Stay in Bed (With Me)
those easy Sunday mornings
my fingers raking through messy hair
caressing down soft skin
the TV idly on just to create some sound
drowning out the gentle sighs and purrs
these days they are
better spent on my own
writing something new and uplifting
reminding myself of the Goddess I am
or used to be
'I will make breakfast'
'I have to pick something up in the morning'
'You can stay in bed if you want'
how nice of you
to let me rest some more
pining for your hands all over me
don't go just yet, stay with me
my fingers raking through messy hair
caressing down soft skin
the TV idly on just to create some sound
drowning out the gentle sighs and purrs
these days they are
better spent on my own
writing something new and uplifting
reminding myself of the Goddess I am
or used to be
'I will make breakfast'
'I have to pick something up in the morning'
'You can stay in bed if you want'
how nice of you
to let me rest some more
pining for your hands all over me
don't go just yet, stay with me

I found this poem strikes such a lovely balance between the engaged and the distant, desire and disappointment, technology sounds and human sounds - all things that make 'being human' a difficult journey and yet the only journey we can live. Pretty good I'd say for a "sleep drunk morning musing" :))

Wow Josh, it almost seems like you know this piece of writing better than I do. And I really appreciate that to be honest.
I am glad you perceive all its textures.
Thank you, I may keep on musing on mornings like these haha.

beautiful Delanee a true Goddess you are
you deserve to be cherished
your desire is sensual
I ache for your perceived rejection...
you set a scene beautifully...

The wishful unspoken whisperc of longing. That never slip easy from the tongue in the lazy light of morning. Excellent writing Delanee!

Brava Delanee! There's no used-to-be's in the Goddess world. A Goddess you shall remain. I enjoy this piece very much.

You're absolutely right. Yet, sometimes I think we all doubt about this - but it's up to us to remind ourselves.
Or some other Goddess. Thank you! ;)

On the contrary, HF. I am really happy with your comments on my longer writes. Why would you fear me recoiling from them? No need for that.
Thank you for the numerous compliments and I love reading how these words of mine conjure images in your mind's eye.
I do always deeply appreciate your views and remarks. So don't hesitate. ;)

Poem starts off impressing the reader you are alone then it warms with the introduction of the other. Someone who will let you have that bit more rest while doing things you otherwise would be getting up to do sounds many women's ideal of a good bed partner.
