I did my homework while you slept. It was too bright for you, so I switched off the ceiling light and turned on the lamp. After that, you fell asleep looking so peaceful; I tried not to disturb you. I kept The Office playing to keep you asleep, put the dishes away, and tidied up your room a little. Somehow a used plate found its way into your toiletries cabinet? It was burning hot in the room, but you were still fully-clothed. (You always like sleeping in those pajama bottoms, I still don’t understand why.) When I crawled into bed, you smiled at me with your eyes still closed and kissed my forehead as I lay beside you. I love you, so far as I think love is.
