Smoke
Sleep doesn’t come.
I somehow feel your purple, acid-washed tee against my skin
My bare legs against your thread bare comforter, wrapping around your waist
I somehow hear your shallow breath that you can rarely catch
I wonder if I rolled over and woke you
I wonder if your fingers curled on my waist and your eyes hit my own
I wonder if I hadn’t held back
And I wonder why I ever wondered.
