fading into you

A gentle serene face
softly sleeping
curled up like a baby
utterly harmless
no danger to me
and while you were awake
and near me
I feared you so
yet now how tenderly
I wish I could hold you
and snuggle in there close
lay my head upon your chest
and rest
imperceptibly
fading into you.
