I quite liked this - don't worry about the lack of rhymes, a poem doesn't need to rhyme.
The lack of punctuation might hurt some people's fweelings. Personally, I didn't notice until I looked back for spelling errors, grammatical errors, lack of punctuation, etc, but that's mainly because when I see a line without anything on the end I automatically place a full stop there, unless it's obvious that it's continuing on to the next sentence.
Anyway, I'm at risk of ranting, so I'll stop talking about the punctuation now.
It's an interesting comparison, humans and cushions. It's probably very original, in fact. I make a point of not saying that anything original is bad (unless it's potentially harmful), so I like it. I'm not sure what to think about how you used colours, though - I don't think most people associate "white" with "pain". Perhaps it's a culturual difference, but from what I'm familiar with (western culture), white is usually a colour of purity, innocence, etc (there are a few exceptions, which might be relevant to this poem - anger and heat, for example).
Anyway, overall a very good poem!
