beside me

We sleep in each other's beds
but never sleep together  
and I miss the sound  
of your sleepy exhale  
and the way your dreams  
speak their way into the world
that you don't remember  
when you wake  
 
You sleep better in my arms
the ease of my body  
against yours  
the comfort you need  
when the day's been long  
and life gets heavy  
 
The smell of you  
on my bedsheets  
can't replace the warmth of you  
and the feel of your hands
on my skin  
just resting
 
We fuck in each other's beds
but never sleep together anymore  
and I miss the way I sleep better  
when you're here  
cause these fucks aren't enough  
to make us feel like home
