Night settles in once again 
It washes the world clean 
With a blanket of silence
This has always been our time

You pull my naked body close
Spooning against my form
Our entire bodies touching 
This warms me from the inside

We are blanketed in the silence
As you press yourself against me
Nothing has ever felt this safe
From life this is my harbor

Fingertips dance along my flesh
Every inch you have memorized
My body responds involuntarily
In the silence my body roars

Goosebumps speckle my skin
One of many ways my body
Talks to your body in the silence
In a way that only you can hear

My fingertips trace the lines
In the topography of your hands
Each line is a story in itself    
Hands so strong yet gentle

Arching my neck as if begging
For the familiar brush of your lips
The heat of your breath on me
Warms me better than any blanket

Safe here in our silent harbor
This has always been our time
My body entangled in yours 
The battle is fought but sleep wins

Your embrace tightens as you
Pull my body even closer to you
The dance we will continue
In the land of our dreams
