She lies there, tucked close to him,
Wrapped around him as if to say to the world “He’s mine”,
Lying close and warm in his welcoming embrace,
Happy hearted and smiling,
She, for the first time, felt love
She, for the first time, believed in forever,
And she, for the very first time, was happy.

His arms wrapped around her,
Guarding her delicate, petite body from all harm,
Stroking the hair off the beautiful face that lie on his chest,
He watches her as she peacefully sleeps beside him,
He watches her gently breathe in her slumber,
He holds his love close, for she is too beautiful to ever let go,
Ensuring her, she is secure even though he is aware she is upon a joyous slumber,
Eventually his eyes also grow heavy and he drifts happily asleep.
