I remember the first time I slept
By your side;
Before our slumber
Our faces, merely inches from each other
Examining every perfection

So glad of my selection,
I turn away, lay my head and rest.

I hear your shuffle of body parts
As you relax by me,
The shale of your body caressing mine
I feel warm, safe,
My heart is so happy, even still

I awake, for you brushed my face
Unknowing that you'd wake me
I turn and stare
Into those oceanic eyes
Beautiful ice etched into your
Iris'; I look and see
The light of day strike through the window
Our few moments alone in the earl of the morning,
I find my deep love.
In you.
