Safe And Sound Poem by Maggie Wolf

Lying here in your arms
the world cannot touch me
The pain, the worry, the hurt
it all fades
away
You pull me close
The nightmares disappear
Your arms a fortress
This bed a haven
Just for this night the dark recedes
All that's left is you
and me
lying in your arms
You breathe with me
The world could end tonight
but with you around me
enveloping me
ensnaring me
I am lost
in you
In you I am found
With you
I am safe
and sound
With you
I am free
