I love you

Ive been watching you by my side
As you sleep away the night
You breathe silent, in a gentle way
Youre so peaceful, how words cannot say
Tranquil as a whispering breeze
At your side, I cannot leave
So quiet is the darkened hour
You make me weak, without power
Your thoughtful gaze and light green eyes
Seep through me like truth to lies
Your butter brown arms hold me tight
I see sunrise at first light
You slowly stir and smile kind
Looking down your eyes find mine
You kiss my cheek and pull me near
You whisper words I cannot hear
You say them again as if on cue
Three simple words
I love you
