and when my eyes cannot find their way to sleep
the world around still inducing lack of silence
i close my eyes and think of you
you come away and take me by my hand
infusing me with your passive love you give me
every calming thought and every loving touch
you are my chrysalis
in your eyes i can see the sea in mine
your skin feels like the lullaby i long to hear
as you tie every string from your heart to mine
silence falls on an ebbing tide
losing sight of the listless words in my mind,
slipping off to a world away from mine,
cradled in your arms and peaceful as syne,
i close my eyes tonight ...
