Blanket-Go-Round

The pillow loses volume

Below you

I move to give it life

The blanket has now fallen

All on you

The breeze gives my mind sight

I could rest here always

Wide eyed I lie and sigh because

I know the moment our feet meet the ground

It?s over and I?m closer to being bound to the blanket-go-round

Timidly I whisper

I kiss her

Begging for some life

Asleep she cannot hear me

Or feel me

I wait and watch the sun rise

I could rest here always

Wide eyed I lie and sigh because

I know the moment our feet meet the ground

It?s over and I?m closer to being bound to the blanket-go-round

Last week was the dancer

Next week I?ll have my answer

How we fit inside

Blankets serve one purpose and

I am very nervous

I?ll never find the one that keeps me warm

I have fooled my brain

Into thinking blankets change

With each new owner they find

I curl up underneath

This week?s blanket and I sleep

Thrilled but chilled again tonight

I could rest here always

Wide eyed I lie and sigh because

I know the moment our feet meet the ground

It?s over and I?m closer to being bound to the blanket-go-round
