If I ask you…
Will you lie with me
share a moment
without expectations
only our feelings
connected?
Will you keep me warm
be soothed by my
breathing
no distractions
only heartbeats
in perfect rhythm?
If I ask you…
Will you lie with me
and listen
clear my mind
be my pillow
my lover and friend?
If I ask,
will you?

very lovely Lauren and in every way. 🙂 so nice to stop by and enjoy this work today.
Thanks so much, Geraldine, and I love your rhyming comment, too! 🙂
Lauren, I always treasure the moment to read your poems, over and over again…they are priceless gems! Have a wonderful day! Thanks for the blessing!
Aww..your words are the highlight of my day, Wendell, thank you so much! I’m always hesitant to repost..I hope you’re having a wonderful day, too, and sending hugs and blessings!
That’s lovely!
Thanks so much, Joe!
I wrote a poem like this almost two years ago. Same title. Great minds they say . 🙂

I love it, Kim, and yes, great minds….:)
Really thoughtful poem. Like it.
Thanks very much, Jeremy! I’m glad you enjoyed this bit of romance!
Totally lovely…..
Thank you so much!
So lovely a poem.
Thanks so much, Michelle! I just visited you, as well!
PS: Is your new book going to be available at Amazon? I just checked over there for a kindle version and can’t find it. 😦 I’m looking forward to reading it soon.
It is on Amazon and a kindle version is available for $3.99. Just go to my Published Work Page and you’ll see the Amazon link, which will take you right to it! Thanks, my friend!
That’s very gentle and nice.
Thanks, Binky, I’m glad you enjoyed this one…
So much nicer if we do it without being asked – but sometimes we need to ask – and we shall receive 🙂
Well, that’s another angle and very true, Eric. Then again, it is nice to be able to ask and receive. 🙂
This poem flows like a river, Lauren. So beautiful! xo
Aww…thanks, Angela, for your lovely comment. Have a beautiful day! xo
Beautiful. Lauren, on a day when I needed beauty!
Thanks so much, Jean! I’m glad my timing was good. 🙂
This is simply gorgeous Lauren. And the photo is stunning too. I imagine the “you” being the one different tulip. 😊 Xx ❤
Thanks, Chris, it’s a little bit of simple from the past, but I’m glad you liked it…and Sabrina took some gorgeous tulip photos that I’ve used. And yes, the pink tulip is “me” but it can also be the person I’m talking to 🙂 Have a lovely day, my friend! ♥ Hugs!
There is such softness in this poem. Its lovely!
Thanks so much, Rama! I appreciate your kind words and it’s good to see you, too!

In two words you have completed what is needed; sometimes presence is a true gift. 🙂
I’m sure he WILL! Love the lyrical flow of this poem, Lauren! Happy tulip time to you! XO ♥
In a New York minute.
You are too funny! 🙂
And you are sweet and sensitive and very skilled. I speak a language called truth.
And I am speechless! Thank you!
