I watched you fall asleep
Ran fingers though you hair
Down your shoulders
Onto your neck
Your eyes darting beneath their lids
Seeing wonderful and beautiful things
I stayed awake
For almost a hour
Just to see you sleep
Just to see if I could see you dream
You would purr when I touched you
West Side Industrial
Brass headboard adornments
One lamp, one light
Drugstore champagne
Light came in through the windows
Stale smoke in the room
Security camera feeds live on TV
Always our way
We slid down the hallway
Marched in black
5 chains
4 boots
1 prayer
