That Little More
He is in my arms
sun settling through trees
flickering carpet
mottling his face
still sleeping.
My heart has been dead
shed tears, nearly broken me
but at this moment
everything held
fixed, settled
the moment when love gives
that little more.

Really love the poem That Little More, so clear and full of an emotion I can recognise but haven’t named.
