I am afraid to fall asleep without you holding me in your
arms
For I don’t want to have a dreamless night
Knowing you have left my side when dusk settles in
Or feel the cold that hovers at night in your absence
I don’t want to know a sorrowful night
So you must stay until I fall asleep
I am used to your scent next to me when I go to bed
It is a comforting aroma that puts me in a peaceful trance
You are a bouquet of comfort
That I need beside me before sleep takes over my
consciousness
