The Staggered Poems

Baby

The rest of the world

just needs to go away

for a little while. You

roll over and hug me

close to your chest and

kiss my forhead softly.

I open my eyes to see

your moss green eyes

and your shaggy blonde

hair. You ask me, "Can we

wait for five more minutes?"

I respond with,

                                                        "Lets."

Normally I wouldn't

comply with your

request. But I am so

comfortable here with

the smell of your

shampoo filling my

nose. Whatever needs

doing can be done

later today or even

tomorrow. Even though

that might not be fair or

                                                        Just.

But let's see how much

I care. Oh but wait! I

have no worries or

cares. I left them

beside your door to

                                                        Lay.

I only care about

being in your strong

arms. Nothing else.

I've never been so

at peace as I am

right now. I wouldn't

want to be anywhere

but right

                                                        Here.
