memories like dreams, she says

her memories remembered her
like nightmares in a strange bed

abundant, persistent and yet
so easily forgotten

when the arms of a strong love
surround her and assure her

the nightmares aren't real
she'll wake up any moment now

As a child
the fun part
of being scared
was being
reassured
by someone
soft and gentle.
