She ran...

When she ran to him, he slowed and stood before her...  she fell to her knees and clung to him, desperately holding on, for fear of the dark night.  He held firmly, yet gently... knowing how fragile she was and it was as if the world had stopped spinning just for that one moment in time.  He knelt to her and held her face with the silk of his hands and kissed her delicate tears.  "Here, you are safe..."  and she knew.  She knew with all of her entire being that it was so. 

Then she pushed.

She pushed so hard that the birds of the night took flight, and the angels cried, "NO!"

The crickets played, the stars danced, and the trees ~ they laughed in the shadows of the moon.

And still she ran.
