Dating : Till Daybreak

On some nights,

He’d stay up,

Stretched eyes and keen ears

Watching me tap, tap, tap on my computer

Until his eyes slowly begin to close

Go to sleep, I’d say

No, he’d reply — I want to watch you work

And so again his eyes open

And sometimes I spare the keyboard

Focusing on the love staring at me

Defying nights, network and data

In them,

I see the words:

I love you till daybreak
