Seeing you falling asleep
as i tell you a story, straight out of my heart.
only for me to stop, and gaze at you
with your eyes calmly closed, you become art.
-
when you tell me about your happy day
i can't help but smile at you.
i wanted to tell you how shitty my day was
but you made me let go of my blues.
-
but alas, on the days we both need a hug
this damn screen just wouldn't let us through.
only the "i miss you", "i love you" are calming,
and yet very frustrating to feel a few.
-
date nights, however, are what we look forward to
with food on the table and us in our finest clothes.
through the screen we laugh together
till we can dance together, in real, on our toes.
