How I long
To curl deep into the tunnels
Of the endless cradle
Scooped in swathes of silky cloth
That curves, handmade, around my body
Protecting me,
Leaving me safe and warm enough
To close my eyes and go to sleep
And dream of such places that
I am now
And feel the warmth
From no one,
Yet feel so soft and warm
Sheltered under duck-down clouds,
Fluffed and scattered
Over my sleeping curves
Oh...
I just want to go back to bed.
