Wanting and Needing While You Were Reading

Last night I tried to go to sleep
I was by your side while you were reading
But even though it was sleep I sought
It was you that I was really needing
Needing and wanting your attention
Wanting and needing your affection
Desiring beyond desire to make love to you
Hoping beyond hope you would take the clue
When I touched you ever so gently on your thigh
When I rolled over with a gentle sigh
Then kissing your shoulder
And touching your hand
But you continued reading
Oblivious to my needing
So I finally fell asleep
So I could make love to you
In my dreams . . .
