The ways of Love
I didn't know that your face would be
different in sleep
or that you arms would lock around me
for all of the night
And only hold tighter if I tried
to move away
I didn't know on those nights you were asleep
before I came to our bed
That the slightest whisper of a touch
against the sheets
Would awaken you and your arms
would reach out or me
I didn't know that during the early dawn
when I moved against you
That I would hear you ,half asleep,
whisper "I Love You"
I could not have imagined how it would feel
to wake to your gentle touch
Brushing the hair from my eyes so you
could kiss my cheek
My Darling, I just didn't know that there
are more ways than one to be loved.
