when the sun breaks through the glass,
you're there—next to me—like you said.
the sunrise says, "hello;" this bright-eyed, personified wonder.

your eyelids flutter, flicker like a light and you smile.

my eyes are open but it feels like a dream:
too good to be real,
something i've thought of.
but you're real, solid in my arms;

we go back to sleep—just for an hour.
