SLEEP

Sleep, tender sleep
Awaiting the morning light
The sweet caress of daybreak
Songs of the sparrows

Dare I open my eyes to reality
And risk losing the precious dreams
Of a warm touch of fingertips
Across the valley of my breasts

Yet if I do not awaken
I may never know if you are real
Or a figment of my desires
That leaves my heart beating faster

I cannot remain in the hazy world of sleep
So I hesitantly open my eyes
And look to the pillow beside me
And gaze upon your glorious face

You are real...you are here with me..and I am forever yours...completely.
