You were there

In the softness of my sheets and in the dryness of the air

In the half full glass of water and last night’s left-over hair.

On the pillow right behind me and the sunshine through the shades-
In the stillness of my breath at the start of my day.

In the warmth of my heart as I am humbled by your choice
In the sigh on my lips at the sound of your voice.

I walked, I jumped, and I leapt and fell,
But not without you; you were there.
