Put me to sleep

My love, will you sing me a lullaby? That makes me sleep and not care about the day I wake. In your soft palms, I wish to rest my head, And forget that mind can actually think. I wish to snuggle in your blanket, And glue my feet to yours. For I wish to believe we are conjoined, if only for the night! There is not an iota of my body that I want to leave behind, There is not a part that I don't want to carry, For every kosher bit of mine is waiting to be enlightened by your relic! O my lover, please put me to sleep, Sing me a lullaby, For its in your voice, I find my rest. For that's where the nightingale finds its nest.
