IN MY EYES 6:30 – 8:30am 1-30-03

It’s times like this
I lie awake and in love
with you.
I want you to know you are appreciated.

Awake and Alive...
I think of Peter Gabriel
for a moment
i wish to chase it
to follow the dream “In Your Eyes”
but i know it would escape me
so i let it go
and his music fills me.

The crescendo and decrescendos
of your frame.
I follow with the melody
the timeline of your face..

No, i could never recreate that song
and like you,
for to guild refined gold is useless
when i have to hues to add.

You roll over.
I don’t even care you steal the covers.

I’m in a moment here with you
Though your spirit’s far in slumber
your body’s here with me
and in my eyes
i see a love that really could change me
a man who needs to know
how much to me he means.

To see you
In my eyes
is to gaze upon a symphony
Complex, strong
and able to disintegrate...
a power to elevate
to the height of the human soul...
and i haven’t gathered all the notes.

To touch you, with my skin
Is a gift from you to me.

I wrap my arm over you.
Your body humms and sighs
and sinks back into the bed.
You love me deeply
this i can see
and In My Eyes
even your muscle tone
is a beautiful song to me.
