You

Then there was you 

A few weeks by your side 
who was I prior? 
I don’t remember 
I think my brain is a liar. 

In the depths of the night
you sleep peacefully
and I’m by your side 
with insomnia, willingly. 

I don’t want to miss
even one breath of air. 
I can’t ever imagine 
not having you there. 

First there was two
our love only grew. 
Then – was a wish 
and then – there was you. 

Don’t Wake Me

Our days 
are routine
wake up
diaper change 
milk
sleep
repeat. 

Days were never simpler
and yet 
never more meaningful 

You taught me to slow down
enjoy that coffee cold 

Life is pure bliss 
and if it’s a dream 
Don’t wake me up 
Let me bask in its beam. 

Oh baby 

Oh baby 
with your warm soft skin 
I can’t believe that you’re mine

Oh baby 
with your chubby thighs 
I can’t believe that you’re mine 

Oh baby 
with your large brown eyes 
I can’t believe that you’re mine 

Oh baby 
with that toothless grin 
I can’t believe that you’re mine 

Oh baby
with your beautiful heart 
Please forever be mine
