Dan Barnes

As I Lay Next to You

As I lay next to you I can feel the heat radiating from you, sometimes the heat is so intense. As I lay next to you I can feel the smoothness of your skin, I can’t stop running my hands over it . As I lay next to you I can smell your scent, it’s intoxicating. As I lay next to you I can feel the firmness of your body, I can’t help but to pull in tighter. As I lay next to you I smile, I relax, I soak it in. As I lay next to you I feel you twitch and move in your dream, I dream of the nest time that I get to lay next to you. The next rest or intermission. The next sleep. The next conversation. As I lay here, I think about lying next to you.
