Poetry: Wonderful
Article Toolsby Kris Vaassen
The satin sheets felt silky under my skin
I believe you sensed this
That's why you thought I would let you in
You sensed my loneliness
My neediness that had been there for years.
As I looked up at the stars
I was dreaming of safe arms
You must have sensed this too
For you embraced me with all of your charms.
I found comfort being held by you.
My need for passion has been a strong one
To keep my life fresh and new
To reassure me I am not getting
old and wrinkled
And that there are things I can still do
To make a man yearn for me.
I love life but loneliness is too much
I felt calmed by the softness of your touch
For years I hoped I would find someone again
I didn't know how, I didn't know when
To light the spark in me
That had died so many years before
I had found romance again
Right outside my door.
