Funny Man

Doesn't take much these days
A giggle is never too far
Every word lights up her face
Her eyes like distant burning stars
She prods me on to newer heights
I'm in a zone I never knew
Her eyes like beacons, guiding lights
She laughs, just like I want her to.

As I talk, to the world at large
She turns her head to look at me
Her lips tell me she's going to laugh
As she hears the words I speak
And nobody else can now exist
Because she's there, and she approves
I crave the curving of her lips
But there's more that I want to do.

I can imagine her in my arms
Can feel her laughter brush my cheek
It's raining, but I'll keep her warm
As long as she'll say she's mine to keep
I can feel her waist under my fingers
And her fingers on my chest
When I kiss her, she will linger
When she kisses me back, it's best.

The air will heat around us two
There's no need for covering up
I undress her as she wants me to
Kneel in front of her & look up
Into her eyes, smiling down at me
Her fingers caressing my shoulder
When I touch her, she sighs deeply
Her shining eyes begin to smoulder.

I can taste every inch of her
She's arched her back, she's closed her eyes
We're closer than ever before
I move, keeping pace with her sighs
Till our sweat mingles on the ground
She's shaking now, as I reach my peak
In the silence, our breathing loud
I gather her closer, hold her to me.

A burst of laughter breaks the spell
I wake up from my reverie
And think of another story to tell
That will get her to look at me
Unfinished fantasies apart
I'll stand and tell stories all I can
If those are the way to win her heart
I'm glad to be the funny man.
