Here I'll Stay

Here with you I'll stay

I lie a-by and watch you sleep, angelic faced as you wander dreams

Gentle as a sun-kiss, soft as baby's breath I touch your cheek

You stir, my sweet

I am here, I'll guard your rest, I'll keep the night-shadows at bay

Morpheus calls, a thousand ambitions to realize in sleep, but watching you I'll stay

Don't wake, my sweet

My own dreams are wreathed in you, life's path intertwined, I steer towards you

I'm here, and no where else do I or have I ever longed so to be

I love you, my sweet

I'll match myself against myself, my own bounds exceed

Close to you, in body, heart, and mind, to have your love, my truest desire

Here with you I'll stay.

With All My Love,
