we don’t speak
we sit in silence
lying on our sides
facing each other
contributing to one’s interest
we glance when we think
the other isn’t looking
smile to ourselves
giggle at the sounds we make
i stare when your face is in frame
the mole just below
your right eye and
another below that one
next to your full pink lips
your eyelids weightless
you’re at peace
your most beautiful state
i can’t help but keep staring
i fantasize like a little girl,
with hopes and dreams
only i want these fantasies
drawn out in the world
where they’re real
