As You Sleep By Richard Maxfield 3-29-2000 Laying next to you in the night Listening to each breath you take Feeling the warmth of your body Eyes twitching, restless in sleep I think of what you may dream Fighting a battle only you know To rescue you from the dream Quite all fears give you peace Longing to be where you are As dreams pass deeper in sleep I move in closer to cuddle a bit Smelling your hair next to me Rhythm of hearts beat as one My breath my life my world Do you feel my love so close I want to wake you for a bit Taste a kiss, feel your touch I will be satisfied being close Breaths taken at the same time Sliding into sleep thinking of us What will new dawns bring Copyright #RM99R4 |

I should keep this by my bed, as I often have nightmares, I loved this poem!!! "Always be a first rate version of your self instead of a second rate version of someone else." Marilyn Monroe |
