One day at a time
You’re by my side
In silence surrounded by
so much noise on the outside
From sunup to sundown
I’ve gotten use to your presence.
There’s no need for constant
touches, but intimacy is what
I crave.
By my side, I rest under your
light breathing.
By my side, I ponder life
five years from now.
With you by my side,
Darkness is overcome by light.
