The soft constant thud of heartbeat
I melt like dark chocolate so sweet
Wrapped in the comfort of white plush pulse.
Not teddy bear
Not the soft fur of the baby dogs
Ah, the quiet gentleness of my hubby.
I see so little
I hear so little
I comfort in so little.
Road warrior I am; cold and armored to battle the insanity of this mad world
The quiet comfort of the hotel guest above
And the loud scrambling comfort by the quest next door
Both of which is wish to never know.
I know my life no more
Taken on its own life existence
One that is lonely, cold, and filled with the silent screams in my head.
I so want to be wrapped in the tender white plush pulse of my real life
The soft whisper in my ear
The most tender kiss on my forehead
The warmth of your arms tight around me.
Protect me from this insanity.
I leave the armor in the limo ready and waiting for next week.
Hold me tight. Don't let go. Let the world scream by without us.
"I love you now and forever,"
