You Breathe Life Into Me

I hear you breathe in the wee hours of dawn. Your hand's laid gently upon my pillow. I'm lost in this sound as I stifle a yawn. You sound like a breeze in the weeping willow. As I watch you sleep I listen for more; the sweet sound as your breath exhales. Like a soothing wave lapping against the shore the peace it gives me never fails. You came to me in the nick of time; took away my fear and sorrow. Now there's no mountain we can't climb. We're looking at a bright tomorrow. These thoughts drift to me as I watch you dream and place my hand upon your heart. You're just as breathtaking as you seem. No wonder I've adored you from the start! for contest"Sounds" sponsored by Frank H. written May 19th,2013
