It’s so warm here, lying next to her. We are only holding hands, but that is enough to feel her everything. When we are this close I just want her to talk, talk about anything under the Sun and beyond. She’s close enough that the words come out in a whisper, and I feel like I’m not hearing her words so much as inhaling the air she’s pushing between her lips. I never want to leave this moment, because it’s just so Goddamn perfect. We roll over and catch each other’s eyes, and she smiles at me, and I cannot understand how I ever could have lived before her, along with the crushing realization that I won’t be able to live without her…But none of that matters right now, because this is a moment, our moment, and it’s a forever that will never be replaced.
It’s the same dream every night. No matter what I try, my mind can only slip back into one train of thought, down the only path I can’t follow…

I just love it!! It’s so descriptive and beautiful.

Thank you so much! I feel like I’ve been struggling recently to get something decent down on paper, and this isn’t long but it felt better than most of what I’ve been writing.

Sometimes, mere moments can compensate for a lifetime of woe.
