There is something really beautiful about waking up with someone

Sleeping is such an intimate thing

To trust someone enough to lay there with them unconscious for hours

Waking up and remembering where you are and who you're with

It's like we both survived to see another day, a personal victory of mine lately

and although I can't promise you the next year, or month, or week even

You have the next 24 hours in my head

A place that was once so vacant

Is a place to lay your head.
