come here baby, let me hold you (Patreon)

you come home after another hard day, exhausted from this month, from this year, and it’s only just the start. some days just take it all out of you, leave you drained, like you have been running on empty for too long. what you need is to come to bed, press your head against my chest, just let me hold you. you do not have to do anything else, do not have to think, do not have to carry it all right now. i feel it in your breath, the way it slows, the way your body presses deeper into me, tension giving in piece by piece. you are finally letting go, finally resting, finally allowing yourself to just be here, wrapped up in something steady, something safe. sometimes the best thing is a good sleep to reset the world, to reset your mind, to remember that you do not have to carry all of this alone. so curl up, let me hold you, close your eyes and just drift off. right now, we are the only two people in the world. ignore everything else. just stay here with me.
