I whispered a thousand secrets
to your eyelids
while you slept last night
and as the fire rose over the hill,
shining into our window,
it left your face glowing
I gazed upon your perfection
without you ever knowing
how much I adore you
and when your eyelids finally opened,
you saw me staring,
and you smiled
but I lied and said
I'd only just woken up
hopefully your eyelids
don't tell you my secrets
hopefully they won't tell you
how much you mean to me
