A place to lay your head

There is something really beautiful about waking up with someone

 

Sleeping is such an intimate thing

 

To trust someone enough to lay there with them unconscious for hours

 

Waking up and remembering where you are and who you're with

 

It's like we both survived to see another day, a personal victory of mine lately

 

and although I can't promise you the next year, or month, or week even

 

You have the next 24 hours in my head

 

A place that was once so vacant

 

Is a place to lay your head.
