I Live In The Twentieth Century

 I live in the Twentieth Century 
and you lie here beside me.
You were unhappy when you fell asleep.
There was nothing I could do about it.
I felt hopeless.
Your face is so beautiful that I cannot stop to describe it, and there's nothing I can do to make you happy while you sleep.
