In
my dream I was 12 years old.
I was all alone in the darkness.
All around me were
mountains circling
the dark emptiness. It was not hot or
cold.
There was no wind and there was no sound.
As I
readied myself to jump, a large dark wing erupted
from
the abyss. As the wing came closer, I could see
it was a
large black horse. He was beautiful.
In the back of his
head was a spear, stuck through
and the arrow pointed
ahead of him.
He flew close to me and invited me to get
on his back.
I asked him his name and he said he
couldn't tell me.
We soared through the heavens, and it
was so peaceful.
For the first time in my life, I felt
real joy.
We
visited other worlds.
As we descended to another world,
the lights glowed unceasingly, sparkling
a warm
invitation.
The people in this world all loved each
other
unconditionally and they all loved me.
The joy and
cosmic energy flowed through me
and I felt so divine and
peaceful.
The horse then told me it was time to go.
I
could still feel their love as we ascended
into the
heavens again.
He
took me to another world.
I got off his back and walked
toward a creek.
Ahead of me was my mother, smiling at
me.
She looked really happy.
She had a sweater on and
she hugged me.
She told me I was her beautiful daughter.
A daughter. That's what I am, a daughter!
We hugged and
she loved me unconditionally.
She told me very soon I
would hold the keys
to the other worlds.
We hugged and
cried as she told me
it was time for me to go.
She said
we would see each other again.
I kept looking down at
her
as the horse flew higher and higher,
hot tears
stinging my cheeks.
As
the horse came to rest on the cliff,
he told me many
things.
He said he was sent to watch over me and guide
me.
He said when times are difficult to just remember
him
because he would always be there to help me.
He told
me his name was Valor because he
possessed the courage,
bravery and daring spirit,
which lived in me.
He then
flew off into the darkness.
But, I know he is really
inside me.
I can feel him...
there...
