Tired eyes that burn
Pounding head that urges him to sleep
Heavy limbs that don't want to move
Lumpy bed that isn't usually this comfortable
Quiet noise that tells him he should be on alert
Sluggish brain that tells him he shouldn't move
Lazy lungs that don't want to remember to breathe
Creaking floor that should be quiet
Groaning bed that complains about its newest guest
Warm body that snuggles against his
Soft lips pressed to his cheek
Slurred words murmured through the haze in his mind
Heavy arm slung around her waist to pull her close
Noisy world fades into the background
Warm sleep swallows him whole
