Love

As I begin to wake in the early morning light

dreamlike thoughts of you already dance in my mind

feelings of joy and happiness stir to wake my soul

your sweet scent permeates the moment

sending me on the most indescribable journey

Sleepily, I turn to caress your face with loving gaze

streams of sunlight from an open window already beautifully rest around your silhouette

I am unable to tell if the beams are drawn to your magnificent beauty

or if your inner light is radiating upwards to fuel the sun

small specks of warmth frolic on the surface of your skin

waiting to reach out to fill the emptiness of all that surrounds you

You slumber so peacefully, without a care

As if embraced by angel wings

and given the gift of the love of the world

draped all around you, lying softly beneath your soul

comforting your every thought, your every movement

pure and Devine love, all for you to absorb

I am filled with a yearning desire to reach out to you

but cautiously wait for just the right moment

fortunate to have even been worthy to serve as witness

yet, I know your touch would bring me closer to unlocking the secrets

of how it is that you complete me so

a completeness that only materializes within the love I share with you

I begin to move towards you but pause to realize

that you in this moment, could only belong to you

out of the love I have for you

I remain silent and watch over you as you lay sleeping
