She didn't wake up until he was thereA Poem by Kaela Craven
She didn't wake up until he was there.
She didn't know you could lay on the beach in the morning Before breakfast Before the paper Before thinking about the world.
She didn't know that you could make love And tell people to leave you alone When they knocked at the door.
She didn't wake up until he came banging at her window Stolen roses in his hand.
She didn't wake up until he came whistling along Leaving footprints in the sand. © 2009 Kaela Craven |
