Tranquil Love
Being with you is a pleasure untold, but
watching you sleep is a joy in itself.
During the quite I can hear your soft breaths
taking in life giving air, then it escaping
ready for another.
A twitch, even a smile sometimes makes me
wonder if you are having pleasant dreams,
something that will give you pleasure during
this needed rest. I may even ask you after
you awaken to see if you remember.
When its time to move you do so with such
gentleness, placing your arm on mine,
probably unconsciously but with conviction.
The touch makes me feel so close and gives
me immediate solace.
Isn’t it odd how repose brings us still closer,
not necessarily in a physical way, but in
a somewhat spiritual plane? Love is like
that, we reap its glory even in a little thing
like sleep.
