Pillow
In the stillness of day I stoutly wait
With cool breeze sending shiver down my spine
The thought of you warms my idle figure
As nightfall approaches with much fervor
Such a delight when your arms reach me out
And pin me close to your body at night
Listening closely to your heart’s desire
Your thoughts so vivid as you clutch me tight
Night-time rejoices when you jump for joy
Your bubbly smile makes me feel so alive
But gloomy at times when your heart cries out
Pour out all your tears and I’ll wipe it dry
Your fears I feel of what is yet to come
Ease your mind on the softness of my touch
As I cradle your body in comfort
A good rest and sleep will be yours tonight
