Covers

I want to spend my life under the covers
They drape over me
And live up to their name

There are monsters out there that are out to get me
As soon as I take these covers off
So I try to bring them with me
With a sweatshirt
Or a blanket
Once I leaned over in a shirt
But it is never the same

Until I excise these demons on my chest
I'm under the covers
I stay

No one will see
