I wish I knew

It would be nice to know,

what you look like when you wake up in the morning

if you have rosy cheeks,

from hours of sleep

messy hair,

tired eyes,

lazy grin

coffee or tea?

i’ll never see

when your most vulnerable,

oblivious to the world,

oblivious to me

but i’ll settle for seeing your face on my screen,

at 4am in the morning,

wondering where you are,

who you’re with,

what you’re doing,

because its better for me to know you’re there,

somewhere

then nothing at all.
