While you slept, I found you perfect,

The curve of your lips, your gentle skin,

Tiny hands and little feet,

Precious ears, so small, so sweet,

And the rise and fall of your belly breathing in.

While you slept, I learned your motion,

Restless moves, just seeking closeness,

Like you did within the womb,

Searching for a body's room,

Wrapped in love, in warmth, in boundless oceans.

And I fell for you more every night,

When your hand would find my heart just right,

Your peaceful touch would heal the time,

I lost you in the busy daylight.

While you slept, I found my light.

While you slept, I laughed at me,

Longing for your eyes to see,

Though when awake,

I'd crave your hush,

Your silent dreams, your quiet rush,

The paradox of love's melody.

Each birthday marked the day you came,

Turned my world around, set hearts aflame,

While you slept, I realized clear,

You teach me more with every year,

Healing parts of me I thought would never change.

And I fell for you more every night,

When your hand would find my heart just right,

Your peaceful touch would heal the time

I lost you in the busy daylight.

While you slept, I found my light.

While you slept last night, I knew,

Your wings are wide, you're flying through,

And here I stand, both proud and scared,

Wishing just to watch you there,

While you sleep, my love so true.
