Please, tell me more

I hear the door open.

are you home, she yells up the stairs?
where are you?

in the tub I yell out. soaking.

she comes up and sees me lying back
in a thick
room of steam.

a candle lit, a book, wet on
the floor.

she leans down to kiss me.
and says

have I ever told you how much you
mean to me,
how loved you are,
how much you are adored.

i'm so glad we have each other.

i smile, and pull her towards me.
i kiss her.
my hands on her face.

please, i tell her, please,
tell me more.
