Exhaustion devours

my body –

I cannot

take anymore

 

With heavy eyes

weary arms

slither slowly

behind your back

 

You cradle

my head

in your pockets

 

Like an

unwritten journal

my secrets held

 

Cheeks cradled

in your smoothness

allow my dream catcher

to prevail

 

Firmness maintained

sweet whispers attained

transports me

through the night

 

Quick adjustments

perfect placement

supports my

hips and thighs

 

Shuffling,

modifying

dreaming

drooling

 

muffling my

weary cries

my darling

 

you transport

transfer

unwind me

 

as my night

slips by quietly

Sea breeze clears my mind as the waves washes the tension away. Belize my native land that breathes creativity and uniqueness with every ray of sunshine. Written words my way of standing up and speaking out.
