I dedicate this poem to Tousha D.
Closing my eyes,
Curled up in bed,
I could feel my tense body relax in comfort
The feeling of safety as I fall deep
All I could hear was the beat of my heart and my breathing
So serene;
I could hear rain pattering like music in the window
The smell of rain,
The smell of silence,
And the smell of your scent
A comfort,
A beautiful peace
A beautiful warmth
I could feel the sleep overtaking my body
The fear slowly dissipating
The only thing I sensed was the scent that lingered around
It was like a serene drug that made me want to stay there
It was a happy place;
It made me happy.
