When I lay beside him

My head upon his chest

Held safely in his tender arms

Completely at rest

No other place feels safer

My worries all are stilled

When I lay beside him

All I feel is thrilled

When he says "I love you"

My heart claims every word

It feels my dreams have all come true

When those three words are heard

When I gaze into his eyes

They sparkle with starlight

His smile reflecting the moon's glow

Emblazons the ardent night

To have this sweet man in my life

Having said, "I love you, too"

I cannot wait to amend that

To tell him,

"I love LOVING you"
