her place

her room is beautiful
just like she is
i almost didn't want to walk in
i didn't want to intrude

but she urged me in
telling me all about the posters on the walls
and the pictures on her desk

she seems so free when she talks
like the words just flow right out of her
her words are the melody
her eyes are the song

she tells me to sleepover
i can never seem to tell her no
i try to take the floor
there's room for two, she says

so i sleep beside her
letting her calm breathing
sing me to sleep.
