Will You Sleep With Me?

We have yet to sleep together.
Is it something I said?
Because there is a rejection I feel when you say "I'm tired. I gotta go to bed"
I roll over empty.
Conversation over, yet stuck wide awake
Do you have to get off the phone?
I mean how long would it take
For you to let your eyes
Let your eyes get heavy with sleep
Go into a slumber
Our breathing is deep
Simultaneously
In and out.
The rhythm we keep
Our hearts the base to the symphony of the sounds of sleep
The melody is sweet
Tap tap goes the beat
Tick tock goes the time
Beep beep goes the phone...the dial tone?
Don't hang up... please?
Your company, although through the phone
Never fails to remind me that I'm not alone
So, will you sleep with me?
I will tell you a story so you can mumble replies
Sing a song to serenade you until your eyes
Weigh 20 pounds and your responses turn to sighs.

As we sleep, maybe our dreams will turn into one
And we can share our ambitions with the rise of the sun
Because truth is
I want to be with u
On your mind.
Stuck to your brain like the mud sticks to swine
And the closest I can get to your mind is your ear
So please promise me that you'll keep the phone near
Hello?...
Hello???
Are u still there.
You not replying makes me feel you don't care!.
Wait... listen
What's that i hear?
The melody is sweet
Tap tap goes the beat
Your breathing is deep
In out out marks the pace that your heart beat keeps
As we sleep together underneath separate sheets
