The gentle pulse of crickets stuffed blue rabbit on your pillow
you’d kicked off all the blankets I stood there trying to decide if
I should tell you or I finally undressed and slipped beneath the sheets
beside you in the bed you stirred and made a little sound I laid
my palm upon your scalp and in your sleep I saw you smile I stroked
your golden hair you murmured No. Still smiling
no alarm clock's incandescent dial. You smiled
and no is what you said I know I'll never sleep again.
