Never Let Me Go

He says: "you're so comfortable,"
as he yawns and hugs me
like a little boy would his stuffed animal before falling asleep after a very long day
"you're cute," I say
and he laughs.
"I don't ever want to let you go,"
he whispers, his arms around me tightening.
I watch him sleep and ponder that-
The thought is sweet, I know
But, he'll have to let me go eventually though
