sleepyskin's Diaryland Diary

I close my eyes

inbetween the Ryan Adams, inbetween the
heat of morning and inbetween the
movements you make, silently, sleeping -
I'm here laying next to you I'm
here and I'm not sleeping.
I'm here and I wonder how it is
I got here and how it is
my hand rests so perfectly in it's place
next to yours.
I need to start coming home more and
staying in your bed less.
I need to write more I need to
go to school and I
need to walk the dog.
but you turn to me, first thing
your eyes half shut with sleep,
your smile tight and sincere
and through the window the day is creeping by.
you turn to me, a small chink of sun on your cheek,
you turn to me and I,
I close my eyes.
