"Before"

Every 

so often,

far into the Night,

California Beckons.

Other Nights it's Hawaii, Singapore or Paris,

et cetera.

The open Road, like a Temptress sighs,

Luring me on with Promises

of Adventure and Intrigue.

Inevitably,  you Turn to me,

Eyes Gently locked in Sleep.

Gradually,

the haunting Invitations

Fade into the Darkness.

And I am left to Ponder my Life as it is,

as it was Before.

Rolling over, Sleep comes Easily.

I am Content 

where

you are.
