I had created a routine out of you
The nights we would fill with conversation
and adventure proceeding on into the
early morning when you'd fall asleep in mid-thought
and I would still be up to have the pleasure of
picturing your beautiful eyes resting
your hair disheveled against your pillow
I would carry my restless body to class and
wait anxiously for the day to be over so that
I could dive once again into our perfect little world
I had created a routine out of you
Our nights began to run on different schedules
and "we" tore itself apart by the
early morning and "I" would fall asleep (or try) without knowing if
"you" had closed your beautiful eyes or
laid your head against your pillow
I would drag myself out of bed to class and
wait for the day to be over so that
I could crawl back into bed
