Snuggle me
for I’ve been playing the grown-up
for too long —
heaviness tugging me down,
hard knots in my forehead
Playing the grown-up
with all of its hang-ups,
studying contracts,
haggling with language
Snuggle me —
Somewhere within
is the timeless and ageless
core of my being
where wisdom runs totally clear
Let your heart reach me there
where the sweet currents
wash away every care,
smooth out the tangles,
free me from worries,
free me from anguish,
from those conundrums
offer release,
rest me serenely
in snuggle-deep peace.
