In Your Arms

I come over to your place
in the middle of the night
I get in your bed 
and you hold me in your arms
strong arms,wrapped around me
we kiss
and eventually our shirts comes off
and your brown chocolate skin is
warm and smooth against my caramel 
I lay in your arms
your head resting against mine
your fingers tracing random patterns 
on my shoulder
until you fall asleep
I listen to your breathing
I stare at your face
your eyes
I love your eyes
first thing I noticed about you
your nose
your lips
I just want to kiss them
but I can't fall asleep
maybe its because 
I feel like I must already be dreaming
or maybe I just don't want this moment
to end
