I'm ready to bleed to make amends
And sleep in this dirt we call our bed
So tell me your secrets
And join me in pieces
To fall and rewrite the bitter end
Caelum had chased the ghosts in his dreams with her beaming presence. He dreamt of running in open wide fields, with his eyes open of course. Everything was hazy and dreamlike, around him the fireflies danced and led him on his dream journey. Each step of the way he could feel Caelum’s reassuring voice touching his weary soul. The very radiance of her company warming his dream world. There would be no more torment and exploding volcanoes tonight. He dreamt of the further treats that she had just given him. Oh how nice those had tasted.
His eyes barely opened, he swore he could actually smell the treats. Surely he was still just half asleep. He opened his eyes further and snorted softly in surprised joy when he confirmed they were actually real pastries. He yawned widely and said sleepily “Thank you” He wondered if she had powers that allowed her into others dreams, and to see what they wanted. Or if she had any control over what he would dream that night.
“You visited me in my dreams.” he said simply, stuffing his mouth with a pastry hungrily. Closing his eyes he chewed and enjoyed the taste. He had not realized how hungry he was until he had started eating. He was a growing young colt who was also healing wounds; it was not unusual to be this hungry. “You were this guiding shining light, you spoke to me the entire time.” He quickly swallowed because it was hard to talk with his mouth full.
“Everything seems intact, as far as I can tell,” he said, eyeing the bandages. The pain from his wounds had significantly eased since she had tended them. The sleep was much needed, the reprieve from his haunting dreams was also quite welcome. “You’ve done so much for me. Is there anything I can help with?” he asked softly, his eyes becoming wide with emotion.
