there is something 
	very satisfying
about the lock of sunlight
that is roosting on 
	your forehead
as you sleep
I perch myself on the edge 
of the bed sipping 
coffee from an oversized
	ceramic mug
like a sparrow 
I watch 	
	you breathe
I feel the need to 
touch your lips
lightly,    without 
waking you I will
press my cheek against 
	your shoulder
take a snapshot of this 
	moment in my mind
I will never forget why
	I fell in love with you
