Sing Me To Sleep


soundly sleep with
you tight in night
warming places
too long cold
a breath in reach
of tender twilight
white cotton dreams
softly unfold
rest creased in arms
of sweetest ease
my gentle lullaby
of laced dark
beyond the day’s
deeper degrees
is the gentle place
peace does embark
I hear the whisper
of your breath
echoing the marrow
of your soul
bringing me life
from certain death
where joy has plainly
lost control

"Go beyond reason to love-it is safe. It is the only safety." Thaddeus Golas
