As You Sleep

 

I watch you sleep,

And I do not care,

For when you breathe,

I know you’re there,

I watch your face,

Through shadows veil,

And I know each line,

Each small detail,

I watch you move,

In slumbers wake,

And let you dream,

While I’m awake,

I watch your hand,

Fall into mine,

I feel your warmth,

Your touch sublime,

I watch you turn,

My heart succumbs,

And I watch you sleep,

Until morning comes.
