Laying here
In my bed.
Him next to me
Sound asleep.
Soft snores come from his mouth.
And it feels
Right.
His steady pace of breath
Calms my soul's anxiety
His scent
Fills my nose
And makes the corners of my mouth
Peak into a grin
His body against my own
Warm to the touch
Feels so good.
It makes me want to write
A stack of novels
Twelve feet high
My eyes are yet to become heavy
But I could lay like this
For a century.
Listening to him breathing.
Laying here
Next to the calm even breath
His warmth.
I can feel it.
I am falling for him.
And the idea...
scares me a little bit
Because of past love
It ended in me broken
But this...
This doesn't feel
Like falling at all.
It's more whimsical than that.
Falling always makes me think
There is going to be
A hard landing
But this
Isn't that.
It feels more like
Drifting
Like a feather through the air
My heart feels so light
Yet bulletproof
She tries to soothe my brain
Because She is referencing
Previous chapters
I never realized
How musical snoring could sound
Until I heard his, next to my ear.
I never knew
Love could feel this safe.
