He accidentally
Woke me
As he stirred in bed beside me.
Half awake,
I fixated
On his chest rising,
And falling.
His deeply drawn breaths
Made the sound
Of perfect sighs.
I wanted to kiss
The sound of his sighs.
And I wanted to love him,
In this specific way,
Metaphysically,
But I couldn't.
I cannot.
