All But One...

I held her hand.
My words made strangers weep, but those closest didn't flinch. I didn't wonder why, the clouds told me better stories. 
The snow said you were looking for me so I waited in the park all day, you weren't there but I could feel you all around, in everything.
The walk back was long, my calves started to cramp, the wind pushed me closer and when I finally touched the door it hugged me back, warm like home. Stars watched me undress through open blinds, as the colours of twilight still lingered in the sky, an unfinished story. I lay down and waited for my mind to wander, it took but an hour for me to fall happily into our world.
Droplets of pure beauty hurt my eyes. The warm rain kissed me all over, grass up to my knees was soft like a blanket. My mind was free here, my thoughts couldn't hurt me.
I saw you across the lake bathing in moonlight, before you started to walk over I was already there, crushing the space between us. As our lips met we became a part of each other, making each half of our world real.
The air was sweet to breathe, the breeze didn't wait long to hug me, we'd barely met. 
The sky was always star-y, even in daylight and the moon never left us in the dark. Lone trees didn't cry over empty forests because know one took them away.
You had everything you needed, a Shepard, a priest, a warrior and a dream.

I Am Yours...

In my mind we're married, we've been that way our whole lives. We're retired sitting on a swing chair, your hair still smells the same. 
With everything together, you and I were a story. I already knew the ending and hugged it close before we met. You are the pages, I am the words. 
I could be happy just like this, did that make me a simple person? Yes maybe it did, but I didn't mind, I had always seen life as a circle.

It Survived, Even When it Thought Know One was Watching..

It creeped through a crack and grew under light, hugging a fallen fence that had long been forgotten. Watching over me as I slept, even though we had never met. Drinking from the rain, waiting in the shadows, framed by a window, growing free and unrestricted in the palm of his hand.
Finding beauty in nothing, means everything.

River in a Dream..

The dusk didn't leave us, it waited for you to come.
She was holding an apple, it was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. The thick atmosphere played with the ribbons in her hair, they were a part of each other without understanding how or why.
We danced.
A river of clouds ran through the sky, we could feel the ripples in the breeze but the drops didn't touch us. Waiting for the word. Twilight kissed my eyes with lips of crimson and purple.
You're on the tip of my tongue, in the back of my heart.
Forever.
