In the night, I lay by her
Just so I can listen to her breathe

She knows I’m there, it comforts her
Sometimes she smiles, she looks content

I imagine she is in good, when she sleeps
Her serenity translates to safety and comfort
Whole midnight entire conversations

As she sleeps I watch her
I fall to her with my arms around
I enter my samadhi.
