Faithful and Fatigued
Not sleeping the night before
Fatigued, feeling not up to par
Watching the clock so intently
Waiting for the day to be over
So that you can run upstairs
Brush your teeth and then
Fall
Fall
Fall into a nice, deep sleep
Rolling over, with your significant
Other by your side, a smile is shared
Goodnight, I love you, is said.
The lights turn off
And now you both relax
Your breathing in sync,
Heartbeats in sync,
Minds in sync,
Intangled like a zentangle
It is perfect, peaceful, it is sleep
