Admiring my wife as she softly slept!

Within the darkness of the night When blackness fills the room The only light is from the stars The only smile is from the moon My emotions slowly come alive And my dormant thoughts arise Finding them becoming realities As your sweet image I visualize While you sleep I watch you lovingly Praying a time will never come to be A moment when you stop loving me A time when you might want to leave For all the goodness one could ever find In life is wrapped deep within your heart Its value I will ever need close to me So this genuine happiness will not depart I pray inwardly and so very silently To my lord who answers sincere prayers That I might receive his favorable grace Allowing your love to always be near.
