Serenity

I watch you as you lie there next to me

You breathe so loudly even when you sleep

But every inhale, every exhale, you breathe new life into me

These are parts of you no one else gets to see,

the way you spout out nonsense words as you dream.

The way you smile every time i kiss your cheek,

or how you wake up in the night just to hold me

Baby loving you is easy

Like a silent melody

And my mind will try to doubt, but you're the one I can't be without

I found much more than ecstasy

Serenity

I trace your face with my finger tips

memorizing every detail

the shape of your lips, the hint of amber in your eyes

And that little scar above your cheek

And there are things we do that are just for us to see,

And I can close my eyes and see it all so clearly

I'm laughing every night I'm with my baby

(Making blanket forts and telling stupid stories

Your love is so intense yet delicate

And I'm safe inside the warmth of your arms

Baby loving you is easy

It just comes natural to me

And my mind will try to doubt, but you're the one I can't be without

I built tower, no one could see

Til you were calling out for me

Somehow you brought down my defenses

Through the trenches your loves relentless

Oh you battle all my demons and I

Fight beside you, I'll patch up your wounds, and I'll keep you safe tonight

Baby loving you is easy

Like a silent melody

And I can say without a doubt, you're the one I can't be without

I found much more than ecstasy

And in these moments of clarity

Serenity
