Bed

I don't want to leave my bed,
It's warmth and comfort, it's soft safety,
A place where I can dream of you and me,
Play out scenarios I know
Will never come to be.
So I stay, half-asleep, half-awake,
When I know I have things to do,
Jobs and chores I must get through,
But I don't care, don't even want
To open my eyes to the reality
Of my daily life.
I want to stay tucked up in your love,
The memory of your embrace,
As I close my eyes, hug the duvet,
Imagine it's you I'm holding.
I might just sleep forever.
