My bed begged me to be blue,
frozen and fixed to her soft sheets,
adored and enveloped by her warmth as a new week began,
and another Monday made its way towards me.
I could see her argument,
and I could hear my alarm, insistent and quite desperate,
and I could feel her embrace, and the trying temptation of a duvet day.
A long, laboured sigh was heard,
perhaps just in the room,
or perhaps across the world,
as I betrayed my bed,
who had done nothing but loved me,
and went into the cold, withholding world.
