Rest for a moment

You look tired
rest for a moment,
I can see it in your eyes,
you need a break, slow down,
you need rest, sit down beside me,
lean on my shoulder, close your eyes,
think of something peaceful, sublime…
 
Feel my arms around you,
for a moment, as close as breath,
hear my heartbeat, oh rest a moment,
even a moment only, calm,
let peace was over you,
rest for a moment,
oh close your eyes…
