I’ll Be Waiting

When the night is dark and you see a glow

That will be me, like a twinkling fairy in a fantasy show

The fire that you seek, ever bright and never bleak

When you roll over in bed in need of warmth

I’ll be laying right beside you as you reach forth

When your eyes open to a new day

I’ll be the sunshine that makes them twinkle in a new way

When you smile and show your dimples

I will be the reason why your heart jingles

A morning kiss

The feeling of bliss

A breath on your face

The love in our space

The sweetness that you need for another day

Me

As you need me, I will be

When you need to take a plunge

I’ll be the ocean that you swim in, like bubbles on a sponge

Scrubbing your back while you scrub mine

I am yours and you are mine

So when you need me I’ll be waiting

Now and always, I’ll be waiting
