A Little Night Music (pub 06.12.13)

A Little Night Music




The air is still when the first soft tone whispers into the room,                                 
the slightest breeze breathes in through the open window and the curtains billow with each exhale
I lay quietly as the air begins to dance around me, blending with the music washing over my body                                                               fingertips of rhythm trail softly along my spine…tickling, teasing a response          
my skin reacts and I shiver while every nerve stands on end                          
straining to feel the loving caress of each and every note     
cooler than the sheets, the melody wraps itself around me                                        
helpless against the swell of emotion rising in my chest,                                             
I am held, comforted, loved                                                                so thoroughly, so unconditionally there is no need or desire to resist                    
and I surrender fully into it,                                  
allowing myself to be carried upward to dizzying heights of feeling                       
before being lowered gently back down                                                             
I drift off to sleep as the final notes fade into the darkness                                        
and the air is still once again
