Upon My Pillowcase

Upon my pillowcase, I hear your lashes brush.


Lying open. Face to face. Watching you watch me.


Silent, Simple, Content this moment. Need no words between us.

This very instant is my bliss.


I gift to you the slightest smile. You thank me with a blush.


Can't dare myself to think. To blink. Then...


Blink I must.


Just a sliver of a second.


It's on the open, when I discover.


You've never even been there, upon my pillowcase.


Blink once more, I hear my lashes brush.

Upon my pillowcase, streaming tears at once.
