After a long day

When I left the office Friday, all I wanted to do was sleep.
But little did I know you had other plans for me.

I arrived home to a candlelit apartment with rose petals on the floor,
Then you handed me a glass of wine and said, “Shut the door”.

You took my briefcase and removed my heels,
In this little apartment time stood still.

You removed my jacket and asked about my day,
I said “fine” and let you lead the way.

You feed me everything from fruit to spicy shrimp,
I knew this your way to show me how much I meant.

You drew my bath water and washed me from head to toe,
All while staring into my eyes and saying “I promise I’ll go slow.”

You dried me off with a warm, plush towel and massaged my scalp,
See this is the type of love I’m talking about.

The phone didn’t ring, the doorbell didn’t chime,
No, this was our special time.

I thought you wanted to make love, but that wasn’t the case.
Instead you kissed me from head to toe and every other special place.

I feel asleep in your arms and you kissed me on my cheek,
Now this is the type of love that really speaks.
