When He Sleeps
July 22, 2014
He fell asleep while texting
Each text taking longer for him to type
Till he types no more
I know he is asleep
He fell asleep while on the phone
He is tired
I am thinking
There is silence
Until I hear his breath gets heavier
He now takes slow deep breaths
I know he is asleep
He fell asleep while skyping
I watch his eyes slowly close
As he shifts to get comfortable
While dreams arise and reality drifts away
I know he is asleep
