as we lay

as we lay

A Poem by aftervision
"

stolen love - cherished

"
 

we danced to gregory abbott's favorite tune

shake you down


you belong to another

that's known -- all over town


i had another with me

but you stole my heart


i saw you with him

and knew you had to be torn apart


you sent me a note

from a dear friend of yours


it said meet me tonight at three

right outside of these doors


i dropped mine off and hurried back

while you let yours take you home


my heart exploded

when i saw you running back so that we can be alone


we made love -- and then introduced ourselves

what was right was right -- and that we knew


we fell asleep in each others arm

after we did the things that only lovers know to do


morning is here now and you are still asleep

i put a cube of ice in my mouth and trace your body to wake you


as soon as you jump - i push the remote to hear


morning - and we slept the night away

it happen -- and we can't turn back the hands of time

yes we stole love this morning

images unfold in the banks of my mind


did we steal -- or did we discover

are we friends or are we lovers


you -- you -- and me -- me and you

oh you got me on high

mornings here

and i don't want to say good-bye


yes we stole love this morning

and we have to face the simple facts

i am ready to say good-bye to mine

and tonight -- welcome you back


as we lay

This had a bit of a rough start at first, I thought, but it came together nicely. I ended up liking it a lot. Personally, I wouldnt have used couplets since your rhyme scheme is AB CB. I would group them together: ABCB. But thats just me, you dont have to. Nice work.
