I want you
Like so many others
But the difference
Is that my desire is in the most innocent form
I crave to lie beside you while
You sleep, watching your
Chest rise and fall slowly
Listening to the sound of your breathing
And the soothing beat of your heart
To run my small fingers over
Your skin, exploring your body
Only to see your nose crinkle
And perfect lips curve into a smile
From my touch
To feel your comforting warmth
And your arm wrapped tightly
Around my waist.
My desire is so different
Because unlike the others
I just want your presence
That's all I ask
And even that, is asking too much.
