holding close to what you know.
the pillow becomes an ally before the sun rises
and takes its place.
we silently seek refuge underneath the covers.
eyes wide open,
wondering or worrying.
eyes closed shut,
excited for what's next or wanting to shut everything out.
whenever we have to face sidewalks or buildings.
we dream back to our shelter
even if the shelter lies deep within our hearts.
peace is giving.
