We come in at night
When the world is still sleeping
We arrive
Our home away from it all
The place where we will spend
Seven days, one week, a lifetime
I barely open my eyes
While he unpacks our belonging
He tells me to sleep, he'll take care of it
I crawl up in bed
Completely exhausted from the trip
And though excited, I sleep
And I dream of what will be
Author notes
Written about the first night spent on vacation with my friends in the Adirondacks. I slept so well that night.
