Poem...Thing.

Curled in a corner
crying in pain and rejection
a soft hand on my shoulder
I turn and look
a gentle smile looks down
offers a hand
a few sniffles
I take it
he pulls me up
I look down
embarrassed
he tilts my head up gently
no words were spoken
but it is like we know
we know what the other is thinking
he can feel my sorrow
I can feel his pity
I close my eyes
more tears run down
his finger wipes them from my cheeks
a soft whisper tells me not to worry
I'm in his arms
smiles on both our faces
he holds me close against his chest
assuring me
"It's alright. I'll protect you."
his voice was deep and powerful
my eyes closed
he stroked my head with a gentle hand
his hand turned to two fingers
with two they ran along my back
he grew larger as I grew smaller
but the gentle, assuring grin grew as well
my heart jumped as he knew
he knew my heart
his hand surrounded me with such care
I curled in comfort
feeling the love surround me
my eyes closed
everything was perfect

Everything was perfect
heat all around
love all around
I feel comfort
protection
everything turns soft
skin becomes flesh
heat increases
love intensifies
I didn't resist
I couldn't
soft warm under me
heat all around
everything gets darker
but I wasn't scared
dangerous barriers surround my comfortplace
heat from behind stays inside
I become surrounded with more heat
it covers everything and stays
my eyes close
it's dreamlike
face flushed with a wide smile of joy
I hug the soft comfort underneath me
giggling with embarrassed happiness
I can hear all around me
he's laughing too
the world tilts and I fall backwards
I take a breath
everything's dark
I can feel soft all around me
going down
down
down into protection
down into heat
deeper and deeper the warmth grows
I stop, I'm now still
slick underneath me
total dark
a place of death
I hear his heart
protection for me
who would think
in a place like this
of pain
death
dark
lonesome
fear
who would've thought
a Hell like this is Heaven for me?
I know I'm safe
I know he cares
he's protecting me
I can feel his love
without words we can feel it
the love
it's overwhelming
faces flushed
wobbly grins
an eternal hug
he will always surround me
no more will pain and suffering haunt me
I am in my heaven on earth
and I will never leave him
I have a Protector
a Savior
I never have to worry
he's always there
and I'm always here
in this Hell I've made my Heaven
and I'm never leaving.
