Like a beautiful piece of music
Or the innocent smile of a child
You bring rest
And ask nothing in return.
Like the wave of the sea
That rocks me to sleep
In its gentle relentlessness
You give without asking of me. Calming my restlessness.
You hold me
Warm and close
Letting me find peace
While sunlight glistens
And my eyes close.
I am the one you chose
The one walking on the road
But never alone.
Because I know you're here
To take me home.
