'do you hear that?' i whispered signalling to the birds beginning their slow rise with the morning sun the 4am glow on a tuesday morning in mid-june i see the outline of your figure as you bring yourself closer and press yourself against me 'you're the one who has to go to work' she teases as she kisses me again she sends a shiver down my spine and chills though my bones in the stuffy room filled with the heat of our breath and the warmth of the summer air another hour passes and we are still awake we sang with the birds and our hands danced until the light became brighter and trickled ever stronger into the room we drift off into a soft sleep to the sound of the waking birds still singing their morning songs sweetly she rests on my chest unmoved by the noise again we awake at 7am i slip away from the bed and ready myself for the day hiding in the corner of the room quietly so i don't disturb but i catch her subtle sleepy glances in the mirror the bright sun now beating through the gaps in the curtains she is illuminated in all her glory more radiant and more beautiful than the warm summers day that awaits beyond our four walls.
