I fell asleep in your arms
Last night even though
You weren’t here.
I could almost feel your eyes
Watching me until I found
A comfortable spot to
Lie my head on you.
Almost…
I could almost hear your heart
Beating in steady rhythm
When I placed my ear
Against your chest.
Almost…
I could almost see your smile,
Ever-present and sincere,
As I lifted my head to
Glance back at you.
Almost…
I could almost feel your hands
Lightly touching my skin,
As I hoped time would
Stop a while for us.
Almost…
I could almost taste your kisses,
Gentle, as I wondered how
There was nowhere else
I would rather be.
Almost…
