This day…..
She seeks solace in their bathtub
Candles flicker and shadows dance across the wall
The house is silent
She dries off and slips into the bed they share
She misses him, but knows he will be next to her soon
She falls asleep under the sheets waiting for him
Her back is exposed as well as one leg
The room is cool and
The sun is setting
The room is harmonic hues of soft light
Vanilla falls from her skin and dances across the room
He can smell the scent of her as soon as his keys hit the door
He can taste her kisses which seek only to please him
and he searches for her
He can feel her softness before he finds her
Her dark hair falls across the pillows in soft curls
And he sees her
No one really ever has
He traces her spine with his fingertips
Her breathing is steady and soft
He leans in and tenderly places a kiss behind her ear
She has waited for him…..
