Rest

They were waiting for you, as always. Even as you wrapped one another in your arms, they felt the way you sagged into them. The exhaustion, the leaden feeling throughout you. But they were here. They held you, soft, gentle. Letting you rest on them.
And, as always, as you lay there, they spoke words into your mind. Words of affirmation. Words of positivity, and also of control. Those good feelings flooded your body and mind, letting your brain soak in the bliss they brought you. They were your anchor, in this moment.
Keeping you still, keeping you safe. Just letting you rest for a moment, it was bliss to not have to think, to not have to act. Just letting their words carry you away, even if only for a moment. But finally, you couldn’t ignore your other responsibilities. Time to get back to it.
