Come Back to Bed

Oh, my! What did you say?

Thank you, God, for that I prayed.

Yes my love,

That I will do,

For I too have felt the need,

To hold you.



I know what you mean,

And I shall not press,

It is only to have you near,

Your warmth and body to possess.



Maybe not the best choice of words,

But you know what I mean.

Yes, that was a quiver your heard,

My tears you have intervened.



Tomorrow is another day,

Maybe this will help us find a way,

To tell the kids not to fear our leaving

For we will be back in a few evenings.



Shall I wear pajamas there within,

Or would you prefer, skin-to-skin.

Just kidding, I won’t press,

Come here my love,

Snuggle up to my chest.



Ohhh, that is as it should be,

My arms around you,

You cuddling me.

God I miss you

Out there on the couch,

Knowing you are so close

And me without.



A little prayer before I sleep,

Dear lord forgive me,

Let me, my lady keep.

Let us never again be apart,

Please heal our broken hearts.

Let us be a family once more,

This prayer I send,

Your mercy I implore.

Thank you lord,

I leave it in your hands,

Just touch the hearts

Of this woman and this man.



Amen.



Goodnight my love

And what’s more,

You are so cute,

When you snore.
