there is a word in Finnish
- unenlämpöinen
that doesn't translate
to a word quite as beautiful
it's the distinct feeling of warmth
sheets hold for a moment
after sleepy bodies
reluctantly leave their comfort
the familiar heat of a lover's body
embracing the one
already fully awake
away from the arms of sleep
it has the very temperature
of the fleeting moment
between sleep and awake
warm from sleep
warm as a dream
