Orchid Lady, if you were not here for me.......
....my world would cease to exist - it would wither into space
There would be no days or nights; no light or darkness - just nothing
No birds, no grass or trees, no seas or rivers; honey there would be no you.
The very thought of living without you makes my love grow even stronger
When we said, "goodnight" I tried to settle into a night of sleep and dreams.......
....but I am lying here beside you treasuring each moment we are together
I'm glad you can't see the tear that glides slowly down my cheek.
Sweetheart, today I read a magazine section which referred to the meaning of love
I discovered no person alive today really understands its true meaning.......
....writers professed to know love's significance, but they fell far short of its truth
I don't require written words to understand my own reasons for loving my Orchid Lady.
Whenever you are with me I feel life and love! Your touch ignites my heart!
I never want a day to end without you being by my side.......
....orchid flower, my love for you is so personal and one that will never change
My heart tells me again - without you; my world really would cease to exist.
As I look at you sleeping beside me I see an angel lying amid her peaceful dreams
Selfishly I want to wake you and hold you closely to me; feeling your softness.......
....in all probability you would tell me to, "Grow up and let you sleep"
Yet I want to hold you in my arms if only for a few moments longer.
Perhaps my thoughts are those of greed - a greed for your heavenly touch -
If I am guilty of these thoughts please smile and sentence me.......
....sentence me to a few more moments of holding you close, and then return to your sleep
For tomorrow I look forward to more years of you living deep within my heart.
I won't wake you sweetheart - sleep through your dreams
