WAKING UP

When my eyes open
I see your face
My heart stops for a second
thoughts out of place

I need to hug you
feel your warm embrace
Feel your lips
taking me in...

Then sunlight kisses my hair and
falls across my face
making me
blink away
the sleep of your sweet image

A smile spreads across my cheeks
Without my knowing
It seems from afar
You have touched my soul...

And even though
You may not
realise it
My life is strangely wholesome and filled
With an untouchable happiness
That in me
You have Instilled.
