Tonight, I'll Seek No Sleep


Mother and Child Sleeping — Eugène Carrière (1849–1906)



tonight I’ll seek no sleep because to lie with you is dream enough as your breaths ebb and flow with all the air I’ll ever need

tonight in darkness I’ll stand guard because to watch over you is dream enough as you shelter the birth of our love holding all the light I’ll ever need

tonight I will not cross into the blind man’s land because to look at you both is a vision of all the dreams I’ll ever need
