I think that
the only reason
I fell asleep
that night
was because
your breath
became my lullaby
And the rhythmic thump
of your strong heart
was louder
than anything
my head could conjure

I think that
the only reason
I stayed asleep
that night
was because
you were all I could dream of
And you are
the farthest thing
from a nightmare

I think that
the only reason
I wanted to
wake up
that morning
was because
I knew
you would be there
And I was
right
