Watching You Sleep

Chin on elbow crutch,
provides a vantage point,
from which to gaze.

Watching you sleep,
your lips slightly parted;
remembering their taste.

Your eyes move,
beneath their shutters,
following dreams.

A twitch raises the
corner of your mouth,
imitating a smile.

Your nakedness;
a beauteous landscape
of heavenly treasures.
