Free Write - 08Jan08; 0022

Peacefulness. A feeling of complete contentment and total peace washes over me as I pull up to the door. It’s been a long day, and I need the comfort of a home that’s never been a reality before now.

I walk through the door, and you’re there. Just one smile from you, and the evils of the world melt to nothingness. I cross the floor, and we embrace – passionately, but one meant to soothe the soul.

After dinner, we retire to the bedroom. We crawl under the covers and just lay in bed, wrapped in each other’s arms, talking… sharing with one another… dreaming.

Out the window, the sky is painted hues of red, orange, and purple. The wind is blowing through the trees and creating a symphony of its own.

As hour after hour pass, the sky slowly fades from its prismatic hues to deep inky black. Stars, far too many to see all of them, twinkle and shine through the window – showcasing their powerful beauty and gentle grace.

As evening turns to night and night turns to morning, we talk until sleep can no longer be staved off. Then, still wrapped in one another’s arms, we drift off to dream … dream of waking up with one another to maybe repeat the mystical feeling of truly knowing another’s soul again.
