In My Love Today
I watched you sleeping
I could see you breathing
The way your neck moved
A single pulse of a heartbeat
A single moment
Signified
You were alive
You were here
Your heartbeat
Alongside mine
Today
For a few hours
We were as one
As delicate
As two people
In love
Can be
I watched you live
In my arms
In my love today
