Lover's Goodnight

Lover’s Goodnight I walked in the door, slowly closing it behind. Careful not to awake you as you sleep. Laying there like an angel on a cloud, I sit next to you Gently pulling the blankets from your head, I lean over and kiss you With a mumble you stretch your arms towards the heavens and open your eyes slightly. "I love you" is the only words you say. With a sigh your eyes close and a smile comes across your face. I now know you have let me enter your dreams. I could be a cop serving and protecting you, Or maybe I am your prince riding up on my white steed come to rescue you. I slowly draw back and remove myself from the edge of the bed. Silently I remove my clothing and slide in next to you. Careful not to disturb your somber sleep. I slowly put my arm around you and draw you in closer to me. As I close my eyes and fall asleep, My mind fills with thoughts of you....... A smile comes across my face and "I love you" escapes from my lips....
