I whisper your name

[DJU9]

I whisper your name
​

​

I whisper your name
My heart takes a leap
I whisper your name
I know the secrets you keep

I whisper your name
Your eyes meet mine
I whisper your name
We're doing fine​

​

I whisper your name
I draw you nearer
I whisper your name
My dreams are clearer
I whisper your name
It rests on my lips​

​

I whisper your name
Your hands leave my hips
I whisper your name
You kiss me goodbye
I whisper your name
I break down and cry. ​

​

morning birds flock
to the window and we
are two prayers encased
in cotton sheets: pale,
freckled limbs tangled
like the dawning willow.

you whisper my name
into the peachfuzz curve
at the base of my neck.


you whisper my name
in the goosebumped flesh
in the valley of my navel.

you whisper without a sound
as we sink deeper, you murmer
with anchored lips and stilled
tongue and your voice is a river
as we inch towards cherry
wood headboards.

i am drunk off the wine
of your breath and my vision
is fuzzy and i can hear your voice
thick as if sinking, falling, drowning
into ocean depths.

​

​

your lips brush mine and we bloom
with wildflower kisses and pianist
fingers arch behind my back
and love explodes with color through
the garden of my chest and i cannot
hear a thing except the sound of
your voice as you say everything
without a single word.​

​

Are you really here or am I dreaming,
I can't tell dreams from truth.
For it's been so long since I have seen you,
I can hardly remember your face anymore.
When I get really lonely
and the distance causes our silence
I think of you smiling with pride in your eyes
a lover that sighs.

​

​

The sun has finally set and the night begins to take over.
I used to fear the darkness, but now I don't. Why?​

Because I have you, you will protect me.
I lay back beside you in the tall grass, resting my head on your chest.
I smile as I hear the sound of your strong heart beating against my ear.​

​

You wrap your arm around me lovingly and kiss my forehead.
It's a very sweet gesture and makes my smile widen.
I close my eyes and think about how lucky I am to have you in my life.
You hold me close against you as we drift off to sleep,​

whispering "I love you" before shutting out the world around you. ​

​

​

​

​

Whisper in my ear,
Sit here by my side,
I will love you no matter what,
Forever by and by.​

​

Tell me all your secrets,
All your untold fears,
For I will always love you,
And comfort you through the years. ​
