finding peace in your arms (Patreon)

sleep won’t come tonight, my mind racing and thoughts spinning in endless loops. i shift restlessly, trying to find a moment of calm, but it’s no use. then, i feel you stir beside me, woken by my movement. instead of turning back to sleep, you reach for me, your touch soft and warm, and ask quietly if i’m alright. you don’t need to do anything extraordinary, just a few gentle words, a comforting hand on mine, and somehow, my thoughts start to quiet. slowly, the tension eases, replaced by the steady comfort of you beside me, and finally, sleep begins to settle in.
