The day is done, its time to rest before the race repeats
Brush my teeth, splash my face, into the crisp, cool sheets
I stretch my arms into the dark to gently pull you near
To hold you tight, I hope to make your worries disappear
My legs find yours and move to them, as a clinging vine
Feeling yours wrapping mine as they gently intertwine
My hand softly glides down your arm, to your hip and thigh
Smiling as I listen to your rhythmic breath and sigh
As you gently run your fingers across my back and hair
I start to drift away to a place without a care
I press my face against your cheek, our tired bodies spent
Giving in to sleep as I breathe your comforting scent
