When she sleeps.

30 May When she sleeps.

When she sleeps
while we walk,
my heart melts
and I get hot.

When she sleeps
while she’s eating,
my heart melts
and I yawn.

When she sleeps
while she’s sitting up,
my heart melts
and my back aches.

When she sleeps
with her hands raised,
my heart melts
and my fingers go numb.

And then she’s awake
and my heart is still melting
and I can’t help but smile
and stare at this little beauty.

In other non-melting news, she’s crawling!
