Linger

From the moment I awaken
The gentle morning air
Brings your scent into my mind
And memories of your touch,
Linger over every nerve.

My body remembers your touch
But my soul knows far more
The mingling of lips
The short, rapid breaths
The quite whispers of your mind
They linger with me.

You bring me more than joy
More than pleasure
And there are no words
To describe the feelings
That linger in my heart.

So please,
Linger a little bit longer
Stay a while my dear,
And make yourself at home
Because this tender heart
Wants you to do more than linger.
