Layla Yaghya Poet Rhyme

Just for comfort

I jump into bed, exhausted after this passing week
Cozy bed, curtains closed and fluffy socks on my feet
All that's missing is a blanket, then I can finally sleep

I look around my room to find that one special piece of fabric I've had for as long as I can remember 
Or maybe it just feels that way, we did only meet last September 

Aha, I've got it, the one I was looking for, just as soft as when we first met
So warm and comforting, the best there is, id be willing to bet
I close my eyes, wrapped in its love, I'm all set

I toss and I turn but It just doesn't feel right 
The once comforting look of its patterns become the most bothersome sight 
I used to cover my head and let it encase me in its darkness but now I'm desperate for light

Maybe I was in over my head, I thought this was dedication but it's starting to feel like suffocation
It's too much, I can't take it, get it off me, this isn't relaxation

I just wanted something comfy to sleep with
If you thought we were anything more, you're believing a myth
There were others before you too, some who did it better, you're just my fifth 

Sorry to toss you off the bed, I know you thought you were here to stay 
To be fair though, I also warned you not to believe everything I say
