Lovely Times at 3 AM

Roll around your bed sheets
Twisting and turning
Pulling the sheets along

Going back and forth
One on top of the other
Bare skin and flushed faces

Quiet giggles and boyish jokes
Soft fingers trailing delicate skin
Light kisses leaving no bruises

Goosebumps on warm skin
Legs tangled together all night
Smooth skin against silky lips

Together for hours
All night and all morning
Hours passing like seconds

The steady noises of the ceiling fan
Rattling and shaking
Such as shaky breaths in the early hours

Don't go home tonight
This bed is so big and so empty without you
My love, the only one.
