To Care For You by ©Richard J. Budig 1997 I lay beside you For a long time last night Feeling the nearness of you Listening to your sleep sounds Watching the rise and fall Of life flowing within you Sometimes, your breathing is Long and measured And sometimes secretly silent As though you’re hiding From the dark things of night So I put my arm around you To let you know that even in slumber I was there to care for you. |
