SPRING DAY

the bed

it is officially the first day of spring. outside, it's warm and sunny. the birds are already out and chirping. and the flowers are beginning to bloom.

i lay in bed, eyes staring up at the ceiling. my hand reaches out to the other side of the bed. your side.

i finally move my eyes down towards it. i try to picture you there. you were such a restless sleeper.

and in the middle of the night, one of your legs ended up over both of mine, your arm pulling me closer to your chest.

i'd complain all the time but i actually found it incredibly adorable and endearing. and i'd end up smiling my way back to sleep.

i have the entire bed to myself now. but i still sleep on my side of the bed. like you'd return one night to your place next to me.

but i know that isn't possible. it is completely over between us. and nothing could bring us back together again. not even this soft bed.
