Love Poem: As I Watch

As I Watch

It just turned midnight 
And you closed your eyes 
For the very first time 
I finally realized 
As I watch you breathe 
I fell to my knees 
And gave thanks to God 
For answering my prayers 
Yes I prayed for you 
For so very long 
I didn't think he would answer 
But he proved me wrong 
I still can't believe that this is true 
I'm actually laying next to you 
Watching you dream, watching you sleep 
Are you really a part of me 
Is this real or is this fake 
Because if it's a dream 
Then please don't wake me
