Half asleep

I stir in the dark 

And find her hand in mine

It's been there,

it seems forever 

Gods own design


In the silence, it speaks to me 

Of her loving smiles

Of the path we've been together 

Of the coming miles


My eyes are closed,

I sigh content

For in her touch, I can see

What I have meant to her 

What she has meant to me  


Some dreams are better dreamt

When one is half asleep

Wonder emerges from simple things 

Up from the silent deep
