last night you were talking

while deep in sleep

so far away and yet so very, very close

none of it really made any sense

a jumble no doubt

of the days' mixed occurrences

it mattered not one iota to me

needed to make no sense at all really

you see, watching you, hearing you

brings a happiness to  me

places a smile on my lips that says

i so adore you

no Robin could have been sweeter

to have spent my time with

no song of greater worth is there

than to hear your voice in the night

no moment greater than listening to your heartbeat

gives all life meaning when the world lies silent

science has recently discovered that hearts can effect

each other over a short distance

i knew that instantly sitting across a table long ago

that my life would be spellbound to a Nightingale

filling my nights with her magic
