To make Atlas jealous…
Sleep gently under my wings.
…I’ll be your dream, I’ll be your wish, I’ll be your fantasy
I’ll be your hope, I’ll be your love, be everything that you need…
No, I won’t let the world crush you as it passes by in all its pomp and arrogance. No, because even if all seems lost, I will be the one who gives you sanctuary under my wings. When the relentless sun is beating down, I will shade you with my wings and give you water, and restore the life to your tired body. And when you are sleeping, I will stand guard at your side longer than Narcissus ever could, carry you farther than Pegasus would ever dare, support you more than Atlas could ever hope for.
Let the rain come down. Let it come down, be it of water or be it of lead.
Have no fear - sleep gently.
It’ll be alright.

That rasmalai pumped so much sugar into my veins that I don’t need a comeback.
