To Fall Asleep

As I drift away
You watch my closed eyes,
You wait for them to open.

I'm lost in the gray
Not so distant skies;
Your watch remains unbroken.

And perhaps somebody told you
I'm vagabond in chains
If I disappear on a breeeze
I'll soon be back again.

But I will not stay forever,
I will be only passing by.
You know I'm the kind of lover
Who must always say goodbye.

Our moment may last for but a single touch,
And my bags won't have time to be unpacked.
It will be up to you to let me go,
Kissing me softly on my naked back.

Did u write this? I heard this just the other day. Rather lovely poem.

Thank you - Yes I did write it I wonder where you heard it..

 

I think I heard this "You know I'm the kind of lover Who must always say goodbye" on American Horror Story or something... Maybe a movie.

I really enjoyed this though
