I could stay awake to watch you sleep, to see you smile. While you dream, I don’t want to close my eyes. I don’t want to miss a second of this special sight. With a gentle kiss upon your soft cheek, your breathing eases, your body relaxes. Once again, you’re back to how you were, Sleeping like the beautiful angel you are. Sent from above for me to hold in my arms and forever love. With a final kiss i whisper “Sleep well and sweet dreams . . .Good night, my sweet, sweet angel.” —Valentin
