I grasp your hand as your eyes grow heavy.
I kiss your cheek followed by another on the back of your hand.
I hold your hand tighter as I feel your grip begin to loosen.
I cuddle up closer as your pulse slows but grows in amplitude.
I breathe silently as you begin to snore.
That awfully adorable sound I can't seem to ignore.
You're calm, at peace, you are asleep.
Watching you wind down is so satisfying to me.
I just wonder if you feel the same when you watch me sleep.
