Description....

You and I wake together. Our foreheads are together and we are breathing out of time.  I bring you in closer.  You have outlasted all of them.  I have loved you since I saw you and nothing has changed.  I apologize silently for all the times I have left you.  I know you’re bitter but at night we can always put it all behind us.  We sleep.  I close my eyes and you follow.  I feel you rise and fall with each breath.  Neither of us move for fear of waking one another.  It hasn’t been easy you and me.  I can always sense you’re resentment when I come through the door.  I feel your cold shoulder when you leave the room.  I know you’re not happy.  I fall asleep with the guilt alone.  But somehow you are here with me in my arms in the morning.  Forgiving me for my indiscretions.
