Fear
I imagine you with the ten inch chef’s knife honed to razor edge
My eyes closed against the fear within, weeping for the danger without.
Your tender silk soft hand clenched tight ‘round the haft, a lily white wedge
Raised above my chest as I sleep, to plunge right down, hoping that I do not shout.
