late at night i listen to her cry
after she thinks ive fallen asleep
quiet muffled sobs from her side of the bed
a long intake of breath says shes trying to silence her tears
shes so close and so far away
i cant help but wonder what makes her so sad
in the darkness beside me
i just want to reach out and touch her
but i cant
and exhaustion finally drags us into a restless sleep
