The Air That You Breathe

Sometimes I lie awake at night

Sensing no other presence than

The breathing in and breathing out

Of my true love lying next to me.

 

You have no idea that I'm waiting,

Listening to your life flow

In the gentle rise and fall

That touches my heart so tenderly.

 

The facts have a way of giving a little

Piece of themselves to every lost and

Wandering soul encountered as

Their patterns interweave.

 

And I am truly blessed to be

The one whose lips you kiss goodnight,

To hold you close, to touch your face

To share the air you breathe.
