I lie awake at night
I watch him sleep
Pondering what dreams he is dreaming
And are they dreams of me
I reach over and touch him
Tracing the ink on his arms
Wondering if he feels me do so
Sometimes I touch his face
Feeling how soft his skin is
I lay awake at night
And wonder how
How could he have chosen me
Out of all the people in this world
I lay awake at night
Watching him as he sleeps
Wondering if he knows
Just how much I love him
