HELL

HELL

I think I know what HELL  is
It is the thought 
That you never loved me
It is the thought that our life together 
 was a complete lie
a fictional narrative 
based on 
survival

A nightmare tormented 
my sleep
providing a summary
of 27 years 
in being together
with inserting
a betrayal
that was conceived
from the first
time we interacted

There was no way
to escape this
dream
It flooded my body
with pain
anguish
and an insatiable
desire to not
exist

As I awoke
I came to 
the realization
that without
you, I am
lost

Dreams
can create
our ultimate fears
into a realistic
spirit

Thankfully
as I expressed
my sorrow
you wrapped 
your arms
around me 
and sleepily
stated
"you are mine"......

I actually had a terrible nightmare last night.  It described that my wife never loved me and was secretly having an affair with a man who would fly to the US every few months for over 27 years.  In the dream my wife told me " how could I ever love you".  Our life our children were all just things she did to stay in America.  It was traumatic and I could not wake up.  When I did, I told my wife in tears.  I knew at this point it was not true as my wife has been everything to our family.  She truly loves me.  She simply looked at me and told me " Don't Worry You are mine".  
I think when we get older, we began to realize more the significant importance that our significant other has in our life.  I am truly grateful
