Because of You
You're so warm
and a little sweatier than is comfortable
but when I put my head on your stomach
it's easy to forget
everything
except your breathing
up and down
matching mine
breath to breath
when you talk
I can feel the vibrations
and I can hear your voice
and it's like a lullaby
lulling me to sleep
I have your hand in mine
resting on my leg
a slight pressure
but it's just so comforting
I don't ever want to let you go
my other hand I bring to your face
touch your cheek
rough and soft
all at the same time
what an odd combination
but it fits you
you bite my finger
I bring your hand to my lips
brush my lips over our hands
don't ever let me go
can we stay like this all day
all night
just don't move until we have to go to school
let me sleep next to you
let me run my fingers through your hair
and will you just hold me
as tight as you can
I don't care if I breathe
warmth & happiness & laughter & peace
and it's all because
of you
