Lying beside you
my hand upon your hip,
the soft warm feel of your skin.

I listen to you breathing,
smell the perfume in your hair,
another night I won't sleep again.

I take my rest in knowing,
that you are here with me.

A million words cannot express the way I feel.

You are the love story that I can never write,
I only pray you know that it is real.

You are the epic that I long to live,
you're my every sunset,
every flower, every song.

And as I watch you sleeping,
waiting just to make love to you.

I hope the coming morning won't take long.
