The children were all sleeping,
he had checked them twice.
Now they were finally free
to enjoy a little vice.

They were both in the moment
and feeling it so strong –
when had they last done this?
God, had it been that long?!

And they were almost there
when a knock echoed in the night
followed by a tiny voice,
“May I sleep with you tonight?”
