The wind rushes over her
bare shoulders and
his hands brush warmth over
her naked flesh.
“I wonder where your dreams come from.”
He muses as she breathes
comfort at his
touch.
Stirring in her sleep to show a smile and a squirm. He
smiles and brushes his fingertips lightly over her face.
“I wonder where your dreams lead you.”
He
flows his fingers over her body as she turns toward him.
“ I wonder how often you run scared.”
He whispers as she opens her eyes and
gazes at his face.
“You are safe with me, stop running.”
Her eyes fill with
tears as she smiles and pulls him close. She floats words into his ear:
“I know.”
