Comfort is... You

An ode to finding comfort within

By Miss DarylPublished 2 years ago Updated 2 years ago 1 min read

Comfort is...

the gentle release of gravity

as your bosoms breathe a sigh of relief

after a long day of holding themselves

to ridiculously high standards

restrained through the underwire of society

grooming them to sit upright

even when at best

they are feeling down

Comfort is….

the release of endorphins

as you gentle hug your arms

around your knees

as you gentle rock

back and forth

cradling the

gentlest parts of your being

roll to the side of your body

and exhale

Comfort is…

the extension of your limbs

swimming through

the tunnels of cotton

hugging your body

as the cool air

whistles by your ear

Comfort is…

Mariah Carey serenading you

through every loved memory

in your cerebellum

as the smell of home

tickles your frontal lobe

Comfort is…

finding the warmest fire

during the coldest snow fall

cradled in the arms

of the one you love

Comfort is…

warm chocolate chip cookies

melting at the

touch of your finger tips

Comfort is…

that bowl of soup

that touches a part of your heart

deeper than any physical touch

Comfort is…

the supple sweetness of your skin

pressed again your skin

caressing every dimple

every blemish

lathered in the love

of a inexplicable force

Comfort is …

You
