Candles low and curtains close,
Little breaths in gentle rows.
I bow my head and softly say,
“Keep my love until the day.”
Angels guard the rest you keep,
Rock you gently through your sleep.
My prayer travels silent, true —
Night by night, I watch for you.
Stars will hum our secret tune,
Silver light and quiet moon.
If you wake afraid or cold,
My whispered love will hold.
