Held in the Arms of My Sleeping Warrior

Mimi
Girded sword at his side
A halo of Hope shines from his eyes
Surrounding the dark pupils of pain
His devout love I hope to gain.

Arms embrace me, so powerful

They stop my every movement.
Forcing my mind and body to complete silence,
Listening only to his desire.
Lying next to him I surrender all that I am, to him alone.

Poetic words leak from his fingers as they move

Tenderly over my body
And are translated instantly to a love so intense and sincere
My body becomes his poem.

His strong physique and character that brings fear to his enemies
Only tames and soothes the wild beast in me.
My head upon his chest, his heart beating against my ear,
Brings my life to rhythm
And I release my soul to his care, one beat at a time,
As I am held in the arms of my sleeping warrior.

Mimi
