Quietly Waiting

Awakened

in the night

I feel you

beside me

hovering

I lay

quietly

waiting

Knowing

if I move

you win

Which one

of us

will give

I feel you shift

you know I am awake

I know you like this game

I lay quietly

waiting

I can feel the heat of your

hand hovering

waiting

You always win

I always give

tonight will be different

I lay quietly

waiting

I feel the wetness seeping

my body and mind slipping

I refuse to bend to my needs

I lay quietly

waiting

Again I feel you shift

lower

I feel your breath

upon my flesh

there you stay

hovering

waiting

My mind says

raise your hips

take his kiss

you know the pleasure

it will bring

Quivering

I lay quietly

waiting

You're shifting

yet again upward

I feel you

lower your body

until skin touches skin

Victory I win

But you just lay

quietly waiting
