My head aches
like lightning with no strike.
All I want is a man to lay with
someone strong
and gentle.
A quiet lion on my bed.
There is nowhere I feel safer
as I fall asleep in his arms.
I want to stay that way for days.
Asleep
and waking
with this pounding restlessness
gone. I'm so tired. This anxious
soul is treading water.
I keep hoping that some mystical
door would open, that I could
jump in and drive for miles and
miles only feeling beauty and pulsating
music. To be content and
be free.
I have to get away.
