Hold me.
Enfold me.
Keep me safe.
I begged my mother.
I begged my lover.
I begged my God.
Hold me.
Enfold me.
Keep me safe.
I promise myself yes.
I promise myself always.
I promise with each breath.
I hold me.
I enfold me.
There is no safe.

Sobering for me. That last line is a jolt. There is no safe. That is what is true and real but I fight against the thought still. Love this, Victoria.
