Awash
My mind was awash like the detritus on the shore after a wild storm. My memories battered at my skull, flickering in and out, vivid colours and scenes chased each other, darting around and around, avoiding settling on anyone view. Breathe, slow it down, sleep is near, the warmth of my loved one cuddled into me, safe, secure and loved. Sssshhhh dear heart, eyelids blinking shut, breathing slow ... sleep, dream the dreams of joy and peace.
