Residing Dreams (Chapter 205)

I took his hand.”I never could.I never will forget you.I’ll come back soon,but right now you need your rest.You have to grow strong.I know you can.I believe in you,”I replied softly.Then,I began to sing the words I had heard so many times;the sweet melody never leaving my heart and mind.”You are my sunshine,my only sunshine;you make me happy when skies are grey;you’ll never know,dear how much I love you…please don’t take my sunshine away.â€?I sang softly and sweetly,but the twinge of worrisome fear ever resided in my voice.He stirred for a moment,but then fell into a deep,sound sleep.He was out cold.I stroked Casimir’s hand and hair,trying to comfort him as much as possible.I kissed him softly on the cheek and left the ornate bedchamber.I went to bed that night feeling lost and melacholy,but all goodness wasn’t lost.A flame of love,hope and faith burned inside of me and never went out.It had always been there to guide me,and it always would. The flame was God’s light, residing in every soul He ever created.
