i sold my soul for a bed
sometimes in life
its okay to be greedy
to want more
or rather, to dream more
so when i lay at night
on the cool floor or thin couch
i cry for a bed
a bed that listens to my secrets
and soaks my tears
a bed that hugs me when im sad
and never leaves me side
so yes, a bed is what i want
a bed is what i dream of
as i hug the covers over a broken ground
and cry into coldness
i told her that is what i want
she gave me a friend instead
so as i lay on this floor, and sleep in the couch
the warmth of my soul
covers me tonight.
