A Beautiful Night Poem by Brandon Park

I opened my eyes
To a big world
So vivid
And clear

I stretched my arms and sat up
To look in the mirror
Only to see
What I thought was a dream

It was you
Could it really be?
It was
It is

Your hair all tangled and knotted
Arms stretched out
Lying on your side
Just like I left you the night before

A night we spent together
Smoking hookah
Watching silly movies
Cuddling on the couch

Oh, what I would give
To watch you fall asleep again
To watch those gorgeous eyes flutter shut
Oh, what a beautiful sight

As I sat there
Staring into a memory
I see your eyes start to open
You stretch your arms

You whisper 'Hey' in a soft morning tone
'Good morning'
'Morning'
Lord, what a gorgeous thing to wake up to

It was a beautiful weekend
Oh, it sure was
A beautiful weekend
I won't soon forget
