this is important too

last night
we were both half expecting something


and it never happened
maybe we were both tired from the fifteensixteen seventeen orgasms



we just laid on top of the covers
of my bed
six inches away from each other
my eyes pacing pages of my book

and you solving a rubik's cube,
the creaking of it making me smile.



and i listened to your soft nose breathing
raised my eyes toward my ceiling
clenched my toes
and thanked god
silently

that you found me
