When I'm not here
With you
I miss
The curve of your back
It's very satisfying
To hold
And pull towards me
After a bad dream
Or
Maybe
Not a dream at all
But a thing
That woke you up in the middle of the night
The way
That things to do
Now that we are adults
And sleep side by side
With a little gap
Most the time
Because sleeping well is hard
Much harder than it seemed
When we were doing it
Before
