The silence of peace
envelopes me
in its warm embrace.
It drags me down
into the depths
where fear lies waiting.
Fear of the unknown,
of evil, of the dark.
My longing for sleep.
Should take me
to the REM of dreams
yet something lurks...
Beyond the protection
of the arms of Morpheus
something terrifying.
A concept without
a name or form
It hides in my psyche.
I climb the ladder
of light back into dreams
and finally awaken.
I am left with vague
feelings of unease,
I light a candle.
Knowing that the light
chases away the darkness
and chant my spell.
My prayer to the connection
of the Universe
to the great feminine.
The whoever watches
over me, angel, spirit guide
or totem, all three.
They bring me back
to that warm embrace.
The peace in silence.
