Grasshopper By Laurenceaux

The night draws in as the air cools, stillness lies all around. The world waits for a new day, for the breaking of allegiance to darkness. And stillness lies all around. And I lay in your arms, face to face and eye to eye as the stillness it all prevails, talking and caressing, laughing and sleeping: the night it draws us close. And laying there; arm in arm, cheek to cheek in the cool of the silent night, we draw inwards; inwards to each other with a glow of life, with a glow of life and love? For laying there on the bed in the stillness of night beside your body fair; no more do I want, no more do I care; for as long as I lay with you there.
