Sighs Matter

[good4somethingbum]

Sighs MatterI asked if she wanted to, with the longing in my eyesAnd slyly she said “yes”, by slipping from her dressAnd laying by my sideMoonlight through the windowpane, covered our first kiss in laceAnd then without a word, I knew that I’d reached herFrom her breath upon my faceSighs matter when the room is still and darkRevealing heat ablaze in lovers’ heartsThat’s when the silence leaves your soul exposedSighs matter when you’re lying warm and closeSighs matter…sighs matter…Well, she stood before the mirror, brushing her long auburn hairThe honey in her lips, the movement of her hipsHeld my hungry stareSo I gently took that brush, and combed her hair from behindAnd though I never spoke, when my breath kissed her throatMy lady knew my mindSighs matter when the room is still and darkRevealing heat ablaze in lovers’ heartsThat’s when the silence leaves your soul exposedSighs matter when you’re lying warm and closeSighs matter…sighs matter…©2007 Robert George
