Sleepless Slumber

Awoken Staring

at the image of you

lying there so peacefully

I couldn't help but wonder

what you were thinking

Do I dare wake you?
Nay,

I do not move

to wake such an art

for to damage something so beautiful

should be a sin.

You sleep so peacefully

curled up like an angel

and all the while you utter small noises

trying to get me to go back to sleep

When I look at them I see

two different people yet,

the same people

Yin and Yin not Yin and Yang

Yet, it works. Go Figure.
