Darkness

I lie in bed with him so near,
I know I’m lucky to have him here,
And in my heart we are as one,
And all my tears and fears have gone.

Wrapped up tight within his arms,
I know that I cannot be harmed,
As darkness creeps in to my room,
To encase me in her sleepy tomb.

And in the morning when I wake,
All my dreams I would forsake,
And every battle I would fight,
To share with him another night.
