Perfect Day?

N.B. Have no idea what I was trying to say here so I don't think its come out very well...

Spend it with you
under covers
protected from chill air
a snowflake's demise
illuminated on the window

fingertips explore
sensitive touch on warm skin
soft lips come to rest
upon my neck
smothered with kisses

warm bodies, glide together
perfect rhythm and harmony found
desire satiated, arms embrace
head resting against chest

papers retrieved and breakfast made
croissants and coffee pass our lips
you look pensive with the news
whilst I show true with the magazine
sports section cast aside

oven switched on and emails scanned
papers continue to be read
great aroma penetrates the air
we sit and eat and drink
no need for words, smiles are enough

retire to the sofa with duvet and film
soon we're both fast asleep
we awake to the end credits
and within each others arms, we remain

you go out and collect the wine
and chocolate too
find me again under the duvet
complete with tracksuit bottoms
and fluffy socks

we talk about the coming week
you understand I just need your ear
I know you've told me all you want me to hear
reading each other like a favoured book

I know you're watching as I write
content to leave me with my privacy
you know I'll turn to you
but for now trust and silence are the keys
to a contented life and the end of a perfect day

Titches #3

Toxic

I know I shouldn't have you

but the feeling that you bring

seeping through my veins

warming the coldest corners

Simple Soul

a simple gesture is all it took

your love for me

a simple way of seeing things

you help my writing

clambering over me

interested in all around you

looking into my eyes

wanting and needing my love

resting on me

knowing I need the company

Vision

As tiredness seeps over me

visions of you come to be

at the forefront of my slumbered mind

and I'm comforted by this, I find

I take you with me when I sleep

no levels of consciousness, buried deep

Right to be wrong

I know you're out there waiting
waiting, for me
leaving yourself wide open
so connected we can be

together at last
bucking the system
together at last
we don't want to listen

everyone telling us it's wrong
it's not meant to be
they say 'nothing in common'
you're not right for me

together at last
we don't care what they say
together at last
it was meant to be this way

'She's trouble, don't stay with her
open your eyes, can't you see'
but you weren't to be deterred
her love is at what I need

together at last
knowing that we're right
together at last
prepared to stand and fight

don't you understand our feelings
how could you ever fall this deep
to our lives there now is meaning
we no longer sit and weep
you think together we're just not right
and it shouldn't have come to be
you want to go and correct our plight
but together as two, we're finally free

Strangers

You send a message to me
waiting so long to hear
to the unknown stranger
to draw me near

I stand to leave
my mind a haze of dreams
walk towards the open door
hoping all is what it seems

the message reads
meet me here
2 strangers to meet at last
and I'm gripped by a sudden fear

what will we talk about
this strange connection remains
leaves us no space to move
what can we hope to gain?

I move soundlessly towards you
your hand outstretched to mine
take a seat you say
and I lose track of time

the discomfort is vanished
as we talk through the night
and we delve and twist
reassured that we were right

Fake smile

I see you
surrounded
charm personified
but still guarded

your smile
lights up the dark
you seem like such a lark
everyone wants to leave their mark

but in a moment of peace
I see your smile dip
revealing that the mask can slip
and leave you stranded without a grip

so hard keeping up the act
a persona that all will like
as you take to the mic
when you want to slip into the night
