I’m curled up on our couch because you’re in another state and I can’t bear nights in our bed with out you in it. I’m thinking about the curls you used to have, the way your hands have always gotten so dark in summer. I’m wondering about those mornings you’d drive to my house so early, showing up on my front porch at five am with hot chocolate and smokes. The way we’d step quietly...

Yesterday I wrote a poem in my sleep which I remembered when I woke up, and today I wrote a story in my sleep that I also remembered when I woke up.
