Come rest your head upon my breast,
let my soft fingers with silken caress
smooth away all troubles from your care-worn face.

Rest here, my love, rest here awhile
while I in tenderness softly stroke
and murmour sweet endearments.

Now lay your head upon your pillow
and let me lie close up behind
encircling you with protecting arm.

Feel my legs against your legs,
my chest against your back.
bask in my body warmth.

Feel too the more intangible,
feel my care, concern, my sympathy,
feel my love, of course, my love.

Let sweet sleep creep up upon you,
sleep now in my arms.
Sleep well my love, sleep well.

Countless times I've attempted to write a poem with this meaning, it never works.
Kudos Nick!

Most all my poems are really dark and I have a time trying to write positive/love poems... I try but I'm not sure they work as well (:^{
