Thank You To My Pillow

I’m glad you have two sides
So I can switch you through the night
I have to feel that cool spot
On my face to feel just right

At first I just start turning you
To make you feel ok
Your fluffiness doesn’t matter to me
It’s your coolness that I crave

You may say that I’m crazy
But with you I do sleep better
When I reach and turn you over 
You are the perfect temperature 

I hold you oh so tight at night
You never let me down
No matter what I say to you 
You never ever frown

You’re warm and fluffy when I’m cold
And full of coolness when I’m hot
You never say a word to me
Despite my midnight plots

I turn you several times a night
And always sing your praise
I’m so happy that you don’t complain
Even through your lonely days

I can’t be with you always
Though I think of you quite often
I daydream we’ll be together 
As soon as I leave the office

I know you’ll always be right there
Exactly where I left you 
You jump just when you feel my touch 
As soon as I need to hold you

Thank you for your comfort 
And support on those cold nights
And especially for your coolness
All those times I held you tight
