Inescapable

--

You're frightened. So frightened.

A drop of sweat falls from her brow. She confesses it was a bad dream. This is the twelfth time. She smiles and brushes it off, I know she is. I feel her fear, and she feels my suspicion... the kiss she plants on me is to distract me. I'm afraid she'll cry if I ask what's wrong, so fragile. I hug her tight, I never want to let go. "You're safe with me." I whisper.

Six breathes passed before she spoke. "I know." She stroked my cheek softly. "I can't stop the nightmares... no matter how hard I try..." She bit her bottom lip. "The images are burned in my memory; I just want to forget... so badly." I kissed her forehead.

"I want you to be filled with peace my love." I sighed, and put my fingers through her hair. "Dream what you have to, I'm here for you always. Nothing will ever change that."

She smiled and intertwined her fingers with mine. "You're all I need anyways." I removed our grasp, holding her face tenderly. Her smile gone, replaced with a single tear. "I love you, Rev." I pulled her next to me on the bed.

"I love you forever, Bas."

"Forever." She agreed.

And when morning light came, all was well again.
