I Love You
The
golden light of morning's brilliant ray
saunters through the window to where you lay.
I open my eyes, full of love and pride,
as it falls on the pillow by your side.
It paints your face with a heavenly glow
like an angel of God for me to know.
Like light, you shine, now sleeping, now awake;
and I close my eyes for my own heart's sake.
The sleepless heart burns with a light of flame,
consumed by the silence that bears your name.
Each moment is giving light to my eyes
as an angel descends from morning skies.
One passionate breath is a soothing praise,
a blush that is born over rose bouquets.
The tongues of dew kiss the morning awake,
and I close my eyes for my own heart's sake.
