streams across his face
how peaceful he sleeps
lying here next to me
I'm not wanting to sleep, just gaze
wishing to stay awake until dawn
I could look at him for that long
How could I possibly have this?
Does he know how long I've waited?
so many prayers to God
all those wishes on birthday cake candles
and now here he is
fate was so kind
to bring me to his side
he is forever, so is his love
I reach to touch his face
he stirs, gently our lips meet
he embraces me in his arms
and whispers "I love you"
with this angel, now I can sleep
thoughts of him fill my mind
all I do is wonder, wonder
so much left unsaid
Why did it have to end?
Did it even begin?
I thought!
He touched me so
I touhced him too
That I know
