{.. Sleep is Intimacy ..}

had some thoughts to the subject line..
thought i'd write it down

I have noticed before that to sleep

ACTUALLY SLEEP

with someone did give this sense of intimacy.

It's as though your dreams had flowed out of you to mingle with his
and fold you both in a blanket of unconscious knowing.

To me, it's an act of trust to sleep in the presence of another person.

In older, more primitive times, if the trust was mutual, simple sleep could bring you closer together than the joining of bodies

I agree.
