You Sleep..
10/4/2026
Sunbeams sleep
inside your eyelashes,
and with them
pull away the petals of time,
one by one.
let the years fall quietly
around your sleeping face,
you need not wake
to know how much of us
has already turned into dust.
I shall stay awake here,
beside this forbidden temple,
where even our memories
enter barefoot.
and when the butterflies come
to visit the ruins,
i shall tell them our story,
the way it once lived
between two hearts
that never learned
how to stay.
You keep sleeping...
let the sun keep resting
in your eyelashes.
I will be here,
awake enough
to remember us.
