BRIAN EVANS 2012

EACH MORNING WHEN I AWAKE

I LOOK TO SEE IF YOU ARE THERE 

AND LISTEN FOR YOUR EVERY BREATH

,I RUN MY FINGERS THROUGH YOUR HAIR 

EYES OPEN WIDE I SEE YOUR SMILE, 

YOUR LIPS INVITING MY EVERY KISS

YOUR ARMS ENFOLD ME

YOU HOLD ME CLOSE,YOUR BODY VIBRANT,

DRAWS ME TO A PASSION I CANT CONTROL

YOUR TENDER TOUCH YOUR SWEET CARESS

UNCONTROLLABLE URGES I NOW POSSES

OUR BODIES TOUCH,AND LOVE BEGINS

MOONBEAMS APPEAR BEFORE MY EYES

AT THAT MOMENT STARS COLLIDE

 —

◄ you taught me how to smile
