A Stranger On my Bed

Comfortably lying on my bed, I closed my eyes.
It was silent and cold, I felt so depressed.
I wonder what it's like to be someone with me?
Not just anybody, but someone I truly know.

The wind was cold and my window was slightly open,
I wanted to close it but my body doesn't want to go,
So I stayed lying and then once more,
I closed my eyes.

A ray of pink, white and blue light,
A pale white complexion just far behind.
Then a tingling sensation from head to my feet,
It was warm and so sensual, a cry in between.

The room was darker, but it felt warmer than before.
A shadow was standing, now it's not there anymore.
I closed my eyes and once more I tried to sleep,
But a warm big arms cupped me in so deep.

I wonder what, I wonder where and I wonder who was there with me,
A ghost, an evil spirit or maybe a stranger who'd want to hurt me.
And as tears fell and as my fear began to grow,
A soft gentle kiss on the lips calmed me so.

But my tears won't stop falling as I stared the dark image,
He caressed my face and whispered to me, "It's all right."
Finally I came to my senses and then I realized,
It was only my sweet loving husband on my side.
