Sleeping Alone

the doughy round of your nose

nuzzle-burrowing as it does

my bewhiskered neck

I miss it so

sleeping

alone

 

the cottony caress of your yawn broken breath

blowing as it does, midsummer breezy

my threadbare open chest

It is not easy, you know

having to sleep

alone

 

the butterfly blare of your blinking

beating as it does

my back rubbed

I miss it so

sleeping

alone
