Status Quo

You lay by my side, sound asleep. I sit there awake, thinking of us. You sit up awake, as I lay there asleep. We roll over in the morning, with the sun rising. We look at each other, waiting for a connection. The connection was lost years ago, when you were seventeen. Now it’s just the status quo, to be with you.
