I See Him Sleep

It's 5:56am now and I still could not sleep. Slightly down, my thoughts flashed to the past, creating some poetic lines. These are times when I could not sleep even though my partner was lying beside me.....

I can hear his snore
If only he could hear my sobs
His eyes shut so close
My eyeballs rolled like balls

What are his dreams now
I wondered
Could it be me?
Could it be someone else?

I wished I could disturb his slumber
Or whisper into his ears
To let him share my burden
That weighs the world down on me
But I just let him be
Sleeping like a baby
My precious baby :)
