Like spoons

We lie side by side
Through the night
Safe
Warm
Together
Like spoons
Fitting perfectly

We breathe in tandem
And our hearts
Once pounding
Now quiet
As the night deepens
And we dream
As one

These dreams
Like our bodies
Fit perfectly
Like spoons
They encircle
Embrace
And breathe
Easy

Morning comes
The sun rises
And our breathing
Quickens
With the start of this new day
