We fell asleep like you fall in love
Slowly and then all at once
And I think in that moment
I did a little bit of both
I fell in love with the way you breathed
Too loud when you were
Between sleep and waking
I fell in love with the way
Your arms instinctively tightened
Whenever I twitched or moved
I fell in love with the way
Your heart beat thumped my back
In a comfortingly regular pace
I fell in love with the sound of
A movie playing on your TV
While we confused ourselves
With whose lips were whose
I fell in love with
Your hands on the skin
Of my stomach and back
Trying to pull me impossibly close
I fell in love with the way
We made pizza rolls and sugar cookies
And ate them on the floor of your kitchen
I fell in love with the way
You stroked my head when I tired
And I fell in love with the way
You walked me up to my door
And kissed the tip of my nose goodbye
Before brushing my lips
I think I fell a little bit
In Love
With you
