Sleep in our eyes
Alarm clock ringing
Begging for another hour
I wriggle around
But you hold on to me
Grab me and pull me back
Sun blazing doesn’t matter
Here is where we stay
In each other’s arms
Like nothing awaits outside
Coffee leads us to the kitchen
I make breakfast, you watch the news
We cuddle on the sofa,
I mention showering,
Neither of us move,
Locked in an embrace
Not wanting to untangle
Your smell is on me
I replace it with perfume
I rummage for the keys
You shut the windows
We go our separate ways
Hand on your chest
Peck on the lips
Well wishes for the day
Counting down till we return
Lucky we get to do it everyday
Hopefully for the rest of our lives
