You lie lopsided
posing a question mark.
Next to you, I too lie askew.
Bodies of two old buddies
by now so well versed
in their positions.
Too close, yet not close enough -
My once prince charming
is fast asleep, and I,
his once sleeping beauty
lie wide awake pondering
an infinitesimal crack in
love’s seemingly tight wall
open as a question one dares not ask –
