Stairway To the Morning

We made the stairs our place

    Painted the walls

    With memories of last night

    And planted

    Bottoms onto the carpeted steps

    

    We stretched our arms across the banister

    To measure

    How quickly the shadows shrink

    As the bags under our eyes creased

    Into tiny smiles
