Sleep
I love to watch how you sleep. The ease that
settles over your features. I wish life wasn't
so harsh on you. The harden exterior melts
away in your sleep. The softness of you
reveal in sleep. There are times when
your tension follows you home and we
fight. You not realizing that it happens
until the pain appears on my face. Deep breaths
are took, words softly spoken. All is forgiven
before we go to sleep. At times I wake just
to lie there. In your sleep all is right with the
world and thankful I am to have you at
my side.
