His words echoed throughout the stillness of the night,
amplified in its dark and captivating trance:
“I bid thee sweet and delectable dreams, my dear”,
and left me swaying ~ gently ~ in a soothing dance.
His voice held me firm yet gentle,
In a protective embrace.
I felt all my chains release me
Of fear, there was no trace
Released from its captive cage,
I felt my soul ascending
Into a sweet and delectable dream
un-ending.
