a thousand knives

[neverwas]

unbearable pain
like a thousand knives,
twisting and turning
descending deeper with time.

your memories run over
like a loop in my life,
i lie here still, to scared to sleep
to afraid to close my eyes.

i reach out for you,
scared and confused.
see you sitting there,
watching and worrying.

you aproach
with arms to embrace.
you stroke my hair
for one moment i forget
the horror that i faced.

in you i find solace.
i rest my head in your lap as you stroke my hair.
to the rhythm of your breath
i now close my eyes.

safe.
