the light flickers on
in the sleepy pre-dawn
and she rolls to one side
her head on the shoulder
of the one who holds her
when she laughs and cries
she breathes in comfort
beneath the comforter
and for a moment
before her love has to arise
before the day becomes frenetic
just in this space
everything is copacetic
in her half-lidded eyes
