'Good Morning Sunshine'
those are words I long to hear
ushered from your lips
as you roll over to caress me awake

If I'm entirely honest,
I simply wish to awaken to you
Rachel Sterling Dec 2010
I'm afraid...
                of being alone in the dark
                of roller coasters
                of relinquishing control
                of hurricanes                and tornadoes
                of letting you love me

I don't want...
                    to go to the race/game/match
                    to eat here
                    to play this game
                    to have ***                just yet
                    to get hurt again

I need you...
                  to take me somewhere
                  to clean this up
                  to talk to me
                  to show me                 and tell me


                  **now
so this is what my brain does when i think it's asleep....this one woke up with me...

Again I attempt patience
Until home again we go
The unknown is all that awaits us
in Loretto other than snow

being loyal is pie
being good is cake
one never wants to lie
when love may be at stake

"don't ever worry
             when we're back at school"
you said
              "you know how I feel
               about you"

of course I do.
  I know what
                      you said
    I remember
    **every word
we aren't back yet; are we?

Terrified

I attempt to keep myself in check

Resistance is futile

I'm falling

in spite of myself
Rachel Sterling Dec 2010
I lack patience

I wait up

This feels....

misery

excitement

boredom

angst

joy?

**somehow more productive than sleep
