i lay down beside you, watching you sleep. wondering what you're dreaming, but not having a clue. your face is so peaceful, so childlike in slumber. i love you more than you'll ever know.
you mutter in your sleep, and i have to smile, because my heart leaped a little. i know that i'll be laying beside you for a while. it's amazing how watch you sleep makes me feel.
i could watch you forever, laying here together. i just hope you don't open your eyes, my love for you is painfully clear, and it may be too much for you to take in.
i can't stop from touching your face, my fingertips are gentle, as if you were being touched with lace.
i try not to be subtle, as i snuggle closer to you. i finally know what peace feels like. and i only find it, when i'm lying next to you
when i'm lying next to you by kimberly day
