In My Bed

Sleeping alone the whole bed is all mine There is no imaginary boundary or property line, I can sleep on the left or on the right or in the middle To find where I sleep there is no guessing or riddle. The pillows are all mine as well That's another fact that I will happily boast and tell, I can place them all underneath my head Or I can place them under my feet or underneath my back instead. My covers I never have to share They're all mine to keep me warm from the cold air, And no one is ever trying to take or steal any them And no one is hitting or kicking me in the back with their limb. If I want I can sleep either on my side or on my back That is of course whenever I want to hit the sack, And no one ever complains to me whenever I snore Never do I need anti-snoring nose clips from the store. At either end of my bed I can even go to sleep And if I want I can count beautiful women instead of sheep, Also if I want to I can dive in my bed like a cannonball Of course it's whatever that I want, it's always my call. In my bed if I want or need to I can freely toss and turn I can do whatever my body and brain does yearn, And if I want I can talk to myself while I am trying to snooze And of course it's whatever I finally choose. When I'm in my bed I feel as if I'm alone floating on the ocean I close my eyes as I pretend to feel the motion, When I'm in my bed I am so very dominant and free Because, when I'm in my bed it's only me.
