I'll be your woods
A safe place for you to rest
Your weary body and soul

I'll be your woods
My leaves for you to hide
From the rest of the world

I'll be your woods
My fruits for you to sate
The deepest desires of your heart

I'll be your woods
My bark for you to wear
To protect you from harm

And through the darkest of nights
I'll be there to hold your hand
As we gaze to the horizon
Until we see the sun again

I sit here, listening to your snores
Alluring, goofy and sweet
For a moment I'm there, all yours
Between the warm sheets, counting your heartbeats

I close my eyes
And snore with you

An unknown, yet familiar place
A desolate town, full of regret
I wander these halls but there's no trace
No sound, no smell, no light, no space

Suddenly, I feel again
The warm wind blowing in my hair
The scent of flowers filling my lungs
The sound of cicadas swarming my heart

But it matters not
For I am here, safe in your arms
A moment that will last for eternity

The summer of my life.
