After a long night away from you
I'm leaving you behind again
You're quite alright with my going out
you're not the jealous type
and I'm certainly fortunate for you
you're always there for me..
But this morning, I looked at you once
as I walked through the door..
Blankets covering you
yet you're still naked and cold..
There I stood, feeling pretty guilty
I just wanted to curl into you..
I know if I did, though, I'd never leave
I'd stay with you all day
and never regret it, I never have
"I'll be back tonight, I promise,
just you and me
and my cat."

An ode to my bed.
