When it’s dark<\/p>\n
and my mind is circling the drain<\/p>\n
ready to recharge<\/p>\n
You lay next to me and breathe<\/p>\n
into my hair<\/p>\n
I hear you’re sighs and<\/p>\n
coos<\/p>\n
and when you finally drift off into sweet slumber<\/p>\n
your muscles jolt<\/p>\n
as if releasing all of the energy they had<\/p>\n
that you didn’t get to expel during the day<\/p>\n
And you holding<\/p>\n
as you flop about<\/p>\n
extending a leg suddenly<\/p>\n
shoulders shaking on their own<\/p>\n
a string puppet being<\/p>\n
manipulated by a phantom<\/p>\n
and I lay there<\/p>\n
fireworks going off in your body<\/p>\n
at peace<\/p>\n
knowing that you’re sleeping soundly<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
