your voice soothes me in the dark (Free verse) by rockinindividual
your voice soothes me in the dark
as you speak of brightly lit fields
and the stars above all the commotion
my blankets weigh me down
warming me
your voice whispers jokes and stories
that make me laugh sleepily
my eyes closed
the phone slipping from my hand
im not wearing my watch tonight
but when i roll over
the clock reads 12:10 in harsh red robot letters
i groan and close my eyes
burying under the covers
until once again
all is quiet
except for your voice
singing your own songs
speaking randomly
knowing im still there on the other end
my mind slowly realizes the fact
that there are exams tomorrow
today
an alarm begins to go off in my head
voices are about to scream at me
but i roll over and tune them out
because im too comfortable
too happy
to care
its only when you decide you have to go
that my fingers lose their grasp
and the phone falls onto my mattress
fumbling i pick it up
only to hear you whisper
"i love youuuu..."
before i hear the dialtone
ringing harshly
in my soft blurred world...
