Poem: Peaceful

You
look so peaceful
when you are asleep
beautiful and dead.
I am ignorant of your dreams,
a fool watching you rest beside me.
Take me to your dreams,
include me in your life
be lovely in the mornings,
sweet in the afternoons,
feverish in the nights.
Open the doors of your chest
and let me in.
Peace I will feel
instead of this eternal wondering.
Fold me with your big hands
and kiss both of my cheeks.
Love me solemnly,
love me truly,
love me peacefully.
