Comfort floods my feelings

Warmth covers my body

And for a second

The world is small and gentle and perfect.

My head nestled in your chest

Your heartbeat filling my ears

As a slice of comfort

For just a moment

Blankets my whole life

A simple moment of tiredness

Your head lays on my chest

You trust me

We trust each other

In the simplicity

We are at our most vulnerable

It’s a beautiful moment

Between us two

You hear my heart

And without words

You promise not to break it

If I nestle my head in your chest

Or you in mine

Suddenly the world is small

And perfect

And safe

We’re safe and sound

And in that feeling

We realize

Love makes life feel a lot less scary
