If I ask you…
Will you lie with me
Share a moment
nothing expected
only our feelings
connected
Will you keep me warm
be soothed by my breathing
no distraction
only heartbeats
in perfect rhythm
If I ask you…
Will you lie with me
and listen
help clear my mind
Be my pillow
my lover and friend
Will you do these things for me…
If I ask you to?

Hi Lauren,
I have no words for this poem! It’s just amusing, reminded one episode of my life 🙂
Awww…Rajkishore, you are too kind, but I’m so glad you liked this! 🙂
That’s one of the things I told my son long before he married. Sometimes we females just need to be held.
It is true…thanks, Sandra! 🙂
Oh, Lauren, such a perfect way to ask for cuddly comfort and mutual reconnecting one with the other! Straightforward requests gently uttered.

Beautiful. Now I want to hear what the answer is in another poem! Pretty please?
Thanks, Christy, and I just posted the sequel (Always)…through everything, I have not forgotten your request. Now I’m nervous, not knowing if you’ll like it! 🙂
Lauren I just commented on ‘Always.’ Don’t be nervous. I thought it was romantic and heart-felt. Thumbs up 🙂
Thanks, Christy, and I guess there’s always something about clicking that publish button. But, thank you for your kind words! I appreciate your feedback, truly, I do! 🙂 xx

Thanks so much, Renee, and I don’t know how I missed this, except its around my hubby’s birthday, so maybe I was absent for a bit. Anyway, sorry for the late reply, but I always appreciate your comments and likes! Hugs and love to you! ♥
