Tonight's sweet air

I love how quiet it is
I'm soothed by your comfort
My hands are dry from cold transitions
I'm in the sheets waiting for you
The lights are on over here 
All wired up  
You come in 
I hear you on the quiet nights
I listen more closely
Your breath 
even like your poetry 
Longs to curve
my ear with sweet words that steam
the room warm
pressed skin against the sting of winter
just outside
lets stay here quiet in the loud rush
of our hearts beating
