Life Flight

Sitting next to you
you're sound asleep
thinking how your beauty
turned this boastful man meek
I wonder if I'm in your dreams
if we're all alone
lovers in flight
a love in bloom
I could join you in dreamland
meet you there
yet sleep is not needed for me to dream
for I am living one
so it seems
my dreams came true
when you said, "I do"
our flesh became one
I drew my first breath
discovered my rainbow
ended my quest
so here I sit
floating on air
watching you sleep
my only care
