I liked this because it's true. When you've been married so long you don't hold each other throughout the night, but just sharing the space is enough.

A very interesting and well written poem, capturing the changes in sleeping expectations and rules during the journey of life. It's well thought through and well written. Wendy

Excellent entry for the Starving for Love writing prompt contest. You fulfilled the contest requirements in your unique style.

Your poem made me think of what happens in long term relationships...usually people fall into a comfortable stage, a deep intimacy and companionship.
Good luck in the contest.

An interesting poem. The gentle words enhance the calm feeling of the message. The free verse form takes all pretense from the setting. It simply says this is how it is. It is a wonderful love poem.

Best luck. Thanks for sharing.

Been there, done that; if it wasn't for a nightly peck on the lips I would think I turned to being a eunuch. The mind is willing, but the body no longer can be wound for I am more grandfather clock than Rolex.

    More grandfather clock than Rolex. lol Tom, you do have a way with words. This has to be the most colorful review I have gotten for this poem. You are a hoot! Thanks for the review and the chuckle.

    I love being me. Unique? Or perhaps just "Odd Thomas," the Dean Koontz character in his mysteries.

    You should cause you can't do much about it at this late stage. lol Besides if it doesn't hurt you or anyone it is perfectly okay. I'm unique myself.

This work has reached the exceptional level

Oh wow! I loved this so much -- it evokes the warmest of imagery, of two people comfortable in their own individuality, but so close, they need not smother each other with the kind of heat that they probably once had for one another.

Simply beautiful!

This is well written and presented.

You have done a great job with the prompt, very creative!

I think this verse is relatable to anyone that has been married over twenty years.

It's funny the evolution from endless touching to barely touching at all.

Thanks for sharing!
