My love lies sleeping
Undisturbed, softly breathing
The heart that beats against the sheets
Though unheard is felt

Every ache, every pain
Every joy, every triumph
Every disappointment, every hurt
Every smile, every laugh

Comfortable, enduring
Stable, reliable
Warm and lovely

No flash of sudden overtaking passion
Still real and wonderful
Full and enduring
Time to love, just love

Looking upon the love there sleeping
A full heart, a full life
Thankful and prayerful
For this never ending story

This is but a chapter
In a book of love eternal
The quiet chapter
Where life and love co-mingle

There will be shaking
Turbulence good and bad
The see-saw of life
Tilting one way then the other

The balancing act goes on
Thank you for the ride!
