It's amazing how, in the arms of a loved one, you can let yourself go. In most ways it's a wonderful feeling. But there's something slightly scary about it as well. Feeling so safe and everything being ok when you're there is great, but sometimes the lingering thought that as soon as you're out of those arms, and there is no chest to rest your head upon, no beating heart to hear, no tight hold around you or a hand gently running through your hair, you will be yet again alone to face the world and your problems. Part of me wonders if this is what it's really like to be in love and to have the person that means the world to you there for you, and if when you're married that since that person is there all the time that sensation of being alone disappears.
