waking up to you

a mess of hair
and sleepy limbs
sprawled across the bed
tangled in the sheets

i trace constellations
in the freckles on your back
your lukewarm skin
soft beneath my fingers

sun rays slip into
our secret hiding place
through the blinds
illuminating

heavy-lidded eyes
grey and brown
like the trunk of the tree
in my backyard

you mouth
sweet nothings into my neck
your murmurs resonating
in my very core

a hand splayed
over the dazed thrum of my heart
and your lips meet mine
in a sighing kiss
