For once I'd like to sleep next to you instead of my phone Feel the rhythm of your breath instead of the vibration of a text I could watch you in your sleep Your peaceful silhouette with the faintest streaks of light draped over you, just enough so that I can make out your face It is not harsh like the blinding light of my phone when I open your message at 4am wishing that i had gotten back to you sooner Because I think about all the moments I didn't reach you in time and what id do to have the opportunity back To fill every moment that I spent missing you with a memory we can both share sleeping with you is the only way I can sleep and even then I still miss you hearing, seeing and feeling you, I know you're not just a dream
