The way I feel tonight watching you sleep
I love you without words or knowing –
Just being.
How is it you so transcend the ordinary to me?
As if your very scent had made the air come alive.
*
How long have I loved you?
I don’t even know when I knew…
…it just seems like always.
And I want to feel this way forever
As I listen to your gentle breathing.
And behind closed eyes your soul whispers to mine
Understandings deeper than words
And I softly kiss you and you briefly stir,
For kisses need no words.
*
Sweet peace…
The cares of the day forgot
A half smile plays upon your lips
In tranquil innocence.
Some moments transcend time in ways that cannot be described
There’s just a knowing…
And all that has gone before
And perhaps all that will ever be
Is not as real to me as you are right now
And you’ll never know…
…but a woman always knows.
But for me, right now, there’s just being ~
For I have no other words.
Just one last kiss before I sleep.







So beautiful….
I love the way you formatted your poem. Starting it off with your first line in italics set the scene perfectly, much better than leaving it as is.
I’ll let sweet, soft thoughts place the heart as will, does anything else really matter? 🌼
No, it doesn’t.
That is a most beautiful reflective piece. Like a goodnight kiss to transcend all others.
Count your blessing while you have the moment. Moments pass all to soon. 🌼
