I Want To Remember This

You’re asleep next to me right now 
Drunk after only 4 tallboys
While a 6 pack and 2 tallboys has me Barely buzzed. 
I don’t know if you remember,
But I tucked you in
Put on some cartoons
And caressed you 
Until you 
Fell asleep. 
You’re snoring 
But every time
Your breathing lulls
I pull you close
Until
The snoring starts 
Again. 
Some may find it annoying, 
But I know
It just means
You’re ok with me.
