You mumble in your sleep
It's more about you not wanting to
Wake up, get dressed and see me to my
Transport home
Than it is about wanting me to stay
And yet, I hold on to those words
Thank you with a quick kiss on the cheek
Which you probably don't even feel
You go back to sleep after I leave
Dream about the woman you love
The life you want with her
And I toss and turn your words in my mind
Savour them like a sweet lozenge melting in my mouth
Before they turn into nothingness
And slip away from my mind
