You and Me

I lay my head
on your shoulder
and exhale
my troubles
away

As your lips
kiss my tears
I close my eyes
and feel
all woes
dissipate

Nothing
in the world
matters when
sheltered
in your arms
in the universe
of you and me

I like this poem Line. It's lyrical as a Lennon–McCartney song. -Richard
