He looks down
At her
With the strongest
Of loves
Stroking
Her perfect hair
Brushing
The softness
Of her cheek
If he could
He'd change
The world
For her
She sleeps
So peacefully
Blissfully unaware
Of the waste
In the world
She represents
All that is pure
"If only
I could see
The world
Through her eyes"
Is his thought
She winces
At a bad dream
And his heart
Jumps
With concern
And anger
He wants
To hold her
Battle off
The monster
That's causing
Her pain
She doesn't
Deserve to be hurt
But he doesn't
Because he'll
Wake her up
If he does
And in
The serenity
Of her sleep
She personifies
Th angel
He sees her as
And it
Brings tears
To his eyes
"I love you"
He whispers
And she smiles
In her sleep
