I try to match our breath, my knees nestled behind yours
Hands feeling small and cold against the warmth of your back
You seem restless, legs twitching,
as my fingers move in small circles along your spine
I want to be the calm, quiet place inside of you
while in the darkness we lie together
Lucid dreaming as the dawn paints the sky
I rise alone, leaving you to sleep
a shadow of quiet resting
in a place I cannot go
