You ask me…who am I? I am myself…I am every woman.
I sip the waters when I am parched. I eat the fruit to satisfy my hunger…….
I sleep when I tire and rise with the morning sun…
I dance to the music …I sing my own song…
And when I yearn…I yearn for you…my lover …my soul.
How you complete me…enhance me…stir up my fires and warm yourself at them.
I lay here next to you listening to you breathe as you sleep…….
your body still glistening from our joining…I see the smile on your lips and it is so hard for me
not to lean over and kiss you…
Instead…
I will stay here next to you in the glow of candles and watch you…my eyes reveling in the sight.
I am filled with joy…this man is mine.
