Amenity

My writing is dark

Gloomy

It rains near my cabin

Soothing me

While the fire burns

Inside, outside, and beside me

If you open my door

I’ll let you in

Gather yourself to dry off

Go ahead take off your coat

Sit beside me

I’ll hold you for a bit if you’d like

Comfort should be shared

Not kept

I’m not here to seduce you

Relax, and sleep

The two of us soothed

By each other’s warmth

Souls connected passing time

In the luxury of the woods.
