I tend to fall asleep in my eyeglasses.
(you know this)
I wake to a book pressed against my spine.
The television playing a rerun of Friends.
I turn over, slip my hand beneath my cheek and drift off again;
only to repeat this a few more times until my brain registers I can “see” and shouldn’t be able to at 3am.
Clumsy fingers set them on the table, beside my half-drunk glass of water.
In the morning I reach for my spectacles and realize…
it was you
all those times…
it was you who made sure I could find them in the morning.










So true!
I really enjoy and appreciate your writing.
I fell asleep last night with my glasses on, and two little cherubs close to me. It was Heaven.
Awww, that’s so sweet.
omg, this kinda choked me up. So sweet!
It makes me wonder who you were talking to.
What a creative post…thanks for making us look at a simple thing in a different way.
Very cute. I used to fall asleep with my glasses on, and can’t believe they never got smashed.
I fall asleep reading my ipad all the time.
Aww that’s so sweet.

I really like this and can interpret it in a few ways. And it is all too familiar…
Awesome. That’s basically the best sorta compliment one can receive about one’s writing. xo

I always fall asleep with my glasses I swear one day I’m going to break them
So eloquent…. I do this too by the way!
