My Knight in Patched Armor

Is this hell?
No
I take in my surroundings, recognizing my home
Our home
Why am I here?
Shouldn’t I be asleep?
A yawn answered my question
I make my way to the bedroom, hoping to find you there
But suddenly there’s a force
It pulls me forward
A meadow now surrounds me
Butterflies flutter their wings
Honeybees waltz with the flowers
Suddenly I hear you cry out in pain
But I’m frozen
I panic, not able to move
I blinked, feeling the force once more
I’d found the ability to run
But this was all wrong
I was headed for a hole
Stopping was out of the question
The force of this dream was much too strong
Falling through the dark abyss seemed to pass so slowly
Dark creatures nipped at my face and clawed at my torso
The fall ended with me in your arms
Shouldn’t I be the one to hold you?
Your eyes, dark as the night sky, didn’t hold the love I once knew
You were cold as ice and for the first time
I was terrified
I watched as your face morphed into an oddly familiar creature –
No, demon
He formed, but still acted as if he were you
Holding an iron grip on me as I attempted to break free
He chuckled, taking my throat in his hand
He strangled and twisted me into a being I no longer knew
That, my dear
Is what got me closer to you
Not his devilish grin
Not his damned grip
But his twisted ways is where he went wrong
He thought I was broken
But little did he know was that
He led me to you
My love
My everything
His mistake
Gave me you
Who mended my broken heart
And patched my mangled soul
