from bar to sea at midnight

Laugh your way through anything.
Sip a drink,
sigh in time.
It's touching to watch you
study the world with your fingertips.
Inhaling it effortlessly
like the white smoke from your cigarette.

I have more time for you
always.

If it were silent
save for an ocean breeze,
lapping waves
and your whisper;
the deepest sleep could find me
tranquil, yet alive.

Thats a nice little poem you've got there.

Someone suggested I take the last part out, the "tranquil, yet alive."

I don't know how I feel about that.
