SPEAKING UP MY MIND

LET'S LAY LIKE THIS FOREVER

It was the way you looked.

Your eyes were sleepy

and your voice sounded like

you were just woken up.

You wrapped your arms

around me like you were

afraid of losing me.

Your head was resting

on my shoulder and

you slowly exhaled

your breath into my neck.

I thought about how I

never want to leave this little

bubble of ours because it was

too perfect to be true.

I wanted to say:

"Let's lay like this forever"

but I was afraid of ruining

the moment of silence

by speaking up my

mind.
