My pillow is my haven

Alone or with a clean shaven fellow

In hysterics or meditation

Exultation or isolation

My pillow envelopes me like a womb

My safe and comforting tool

The case will change with the feathers rearranged

On the seat of my car or in the woods under the stars

My pillow guides me to another world

to rest and release the pains

Awaken refreshed to embrace a new day

Smiling while enjoying the gains

My pillow reigns

As the sanctuary for my soul
