I watch you sleep, wondering
what you dream of
as your eyes dart beneath
your quivering lids.
Are your dreams the same
as mine my love?
Do they burn bright as a candle
on a darky stormy night?
Do they sometimes wake you
in a flurry of panic?
Or are they calm and serene
and wrapped in chocolate silk?
Do you feel my touch as I attempt
to soothe your frowning brow?
Or my arms wrapped around you
as you dance in your slumber?
I guess I’ll never know,
but that won’t stop me wondering.
I kiss your cheek, leaving
my questions branded on your face.
