Slumbering Giant

You sleep peacefully beside me
and all I can hear
is my name, a tagline
between each of your breaths.
So happily you slumber,
a giant of steel.
Yet you pull me into your arms,
gentle as silk on skin.
A midnight embrace
that soothes my soul.
If I close my eyes
and allow myself to obey
your silent command
to fall asleep in your arms,
will I find myself
dreaming the same dream
as you are, man of secret smiles?
I'll snuggle close and find out.
