Dimly Lit Spaces

I sink deeper in the sheets,

Not concerned with what exists beyond me

For right now,

This is where i need to be


Theres a special place in my soul,

For the comfy blankets and the pillows

In the dimly lit spaces

I could never let go

Of the way that they embrace us


The longer i spend

In theses places,

The harder it is

To leave their cages


When i do break free

I seem to land on my knees

They say you need to crawl before you walk

And it may take a while for you to talk


For all you hear,

Is that place

You have tried so hard to erase

Reaching out its arm,

Claiming to cause you no harm


You pass it by,

And wonder why

You ever left


After all,

It came to say

They would like you to stay


It even made spaces

For all the ways

You knew you werent okay


And deep down

you know that you could

Never let go

Of the dimly lit spaces

And the way that they embrace us
