You Are My Song

In the stillness of the night
I hear your breathing
see your halo
which as with all angels
does not diminish with time
but empowers me to see reflected
the wondrous glories of you-

At sunrise I hear your song
which whispers to the heavens
"I love you"
All of creation must know
the beauty of your sweet soul
which is my salvation and saving grace-

Throughout the day I watch you
our life so beautiful, so perfect
and I realize that even the stars
in heaven could not shine so brightly
as our love-

Sunset remains and it sets within your eyes
my whole world, everything to me
keeper of love and sweet death
for I died unto your arms-
