SOMEWHERE IN THE NIGHT-TIME OF MY MIND

Somewhere in the night-time
   of my mind,
your personality wraps around me in the dark
   like a blanket,
keeps me warm,
and makes me feel safe-
My breath stills as the stress vacates
and evaporates.
leaving only the quiet swells
of the soft heartbeats
that burgeon underneath your nuzzles.

I don't care if we never become more than friends again, my memories of you are better than any birthday present I could ever get. Little things like grape jam mean more to me than anything else in the world.

Though I have faltered some in the last few years, I know I will wait (in the long run) until I find somebody who I'll love as much as I had loved you.
