mmmdccxxxvi

Love

Keeping you up until
the middle of the night
just because I want to,
because you won’t say

“Shut up!” but instead
lie there with your eyes
half-closed pretending
to be lost in listening.

Okay, by now you’re
not pretending to be
anything.  You’re
clearly half asleep.  So

I say goodnight.  And
thank you for indulging.
