You must be sleeping
I miss watching you sleep
Sounds so creepy
But it gave me peace

I would softly caress your face
Gently pull back loose strands of hair
While you lightly snored
While you breathed in air

It never bothered me to wake
Before you
Because this time was short
And I knew

These moments were fleeting
So I cherished
The you you were
While you slept
And I stared
