Watching As You Sleep

Waking up before you
Won’t move a muscle

A quick turn within sheets
A nearly quiet rustle

Watching as you sleep
Head lying in palm

The lines on your face
A story at its calm

So many questions to wonder
What is it you’re dreaming of?

Where is it that you have gone?
Is it a place that you love?

It’s enough to just watch
But then I move in closer

You arm comes around me
Becoming my enclosure

As I listen to you breathe
I, too, close my eyes

It’s soothing and it’s simple
Oh, how time flies
