Soft Carpet Sunrise

Cozy carpet, crowded little living room
Blankets bunched beneath a borrowed moon
Family laughter lingering in the walls
I was dreaming on the floor where the daylight falls


School night stillness, sudden gentle grace
Soft steps, sweet smile, familiar face
Sugar scented surprises, chocolate rolled just right
Homemade happiness in the hush of night


Half asleep but my heart beat fast
Some perfect moments are built to last


Soft carpet sunrise, smile on my skin
She lay beside me and the world let in
No worry, no walls, just warmth and light
A simple love that felt so right


Didn’t mind the room or who could see
Love laughed louder than modesty
Shoulder to shoulder, safe and sound
Whole wide world on the living room ground


Morning murmured, books by the door
Time tapped gently, asking for more
She woke me smiling, kissed my cheek
Turned an ordinary day into a keepsake


Soft carpet sunrise, smile on my skin
She lay beside me and the world let in
No worry, no walls, just warmth and light
A simple love that felt so right


Years may wander, paths may part
But joy remembers where it starts
Sugar and sleep, a birthday grin
Love was easy, love was kind


If someone asks me what love can be
I’ll say it’s small and it’s sweet and it’s free
A quiet kiss before the day begins
On a soft carpet sunrise
