I Watch You Softly Sleeping

I watch you softly sleeping,
A placid contentment on your face.
I lean down,
My hair brushing your cheek,
To softly kiss the warmness of your skin
And I see a smile brush your lips
Ever so delicate
As when a butterfly lands
And then in the rapid flapping of paper wings
Is gone.
I watch you softly sleeping,
And I long to join you.
You look so peaceful, so serene,
Lost in gentle slumber,
Your chest rising and falling
With the beating of your heart,
Your breath emerging rasping
And rhythmic.
How I wish to wrap your arms around me
To protect my fair skin from
The harshness
Of deep night.
I watch you softly sleeping,
The innocence with which you are able
To lie before me,
Faint light reflecting off your
Softly glowing skin
As you lie
Sprawled on your back
Confident even in unconciousness.
For a moment I feel intimidation
Then your stir,
Cold from the sweat that causes
Your skin to possess such a radiance.
You curl up with your head resting in my lap;
Instinctively I brush unruly hair out of
Closed eyes.
The butterfly's flight
A little boy sleeps.
