The Allure of Affection

Just the slightest touch of your strong hand outweighs
      the stress of my days.

For I am your warm blanket, encompass me,
      affection are we.

Fear not all the pain that we’ve had to endure,
      embrace my allure. 

Just the slightest touch of your strong hand outweighs
      the woe life conveys-
      set my heart ablaze.
