Sleep safely
in my arms
our passion cooled
the love growing
drawing us closer
this is my most sacred
place here
there are no secrets
no doubts
only this truth
this precious warmth
and sharing
complete my soul
keep me close to you
never let me go
for I would never leave
let you be darkness
and I the lght
together building
a home in the place between
