When You Sleep

~

You look beautiful in your sleep

I can tell your dreams are just as

glamorous and divine

like tequila on my lips,

you're perfectly distilled.

I would give anything to have a glimpse

to see your world:

no motives, no hidden catch.

I just want to see,

to find your inner child,

to know your happy place,

to stop anything from getting in the way.

I shield nightmares from slipping through.

I'll be your angel,

watching over you,

guarding your dreams

when you go to sleep
