accept
me, love me, hold me. tell me words of encouragment. pretty
phrases you've learnt along the way. let's cuddle,
i'm especially sad tonight. simply being in the same room
would be enough. just want to see you and hear that voice.
i'm closing my eyes to the sound of you. a long day is
finally coming to an end. my anxious heart is finally settling
down. small spoon, feeling protected and safe. sighs have become
my normal breathing pattern, but with this long exhale my burdens
are sent off one by one. i'm warmed by the touch of you. i
think i can find the strength to go on. hanging onto precious
nights like this, i think it will be more than enough. i say
thank you and mumble small compliments. how handsome and kind you
are. how tender and sweet you are. i'm drifting off to the
thought of us being eternally like this. warm in every essence of
the word. comfortable. content. dare i say it, even
happy.
