i think you think
that my favorite way to sleep
is with your long and lanky arms
hugging me from behind
and you're thin, muscular legs
making a mess with mine.
let me say, though,
that while this is a heavenly way
to fall asleep
i like it better
when i'm wrapped tighter around your back
that that day you grasped my hand so tight
all because of a scary roller coaster
and i like my legs
resting in between yours
because you feel safe this way too
so let me hold all of you in
and let me be your shelter
if only for the night
