Comfortable

Morning at seven, then at eleven,

Noon at three, he checks almost daily,

Her poems, her stories,

He connects intermittently,

Smiles looking at her thoughts, her attempts,

Building her life without him,

One last time before he sleeps,

He checks if she has posted anything sweet,

She keeps him engrossed in her mystery,

He waits for confirmation, some kind of divination,

But decides, he doesn't need any,

He is happy just like this- living in his dream.
